Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks In the module "Medical technology 2 – an organ system-based approach", the fundamentals of therapeutic and diagnostic medical technology are taught in a structured manner for specific organ systems. This is accomplished with a systematic approach that first presents the anatomical and physiological basics of the organ system, and subsequently addresses the relative pathology with a selection of the most common diseases. Finally, the medical technology solutions for the diagnosis and therapy are presented. Here, besides well-established medical technology, we will also address new developments and emerging strategies reaching the clinic, such as regenerative medicine (e.g., cell therapy). By offering units on basic knowledge (e.g., cell biology, imaging techniques, anatomical terminology), all students are brought up to the same level of preparation, independently of their previous education. The module “Medical technology 2 – an organ system-based approach” focuses on the following organ systems (subject to change): respiratory system, nervous system, urogenital system, digestive system and sensory system (e.g. ear). Guest lectures from medical technology companies in the Munich area as well as clinicians active in Munich clinics complement the lectures with expert insights in different applications related to the treated organ systems. The module is complementary to “Medical Technology 1 – an organ system-based approach”, which deals with other organ systems.
