to acquire knowledges in diagnosys and management of main infectious disease
Professionalising training of Gastroenterology
Professionalising training must develop the theoretical-practical knowledge and skills related to the care activity in the field of Digestive, Liver, Biliary-Pancreatic and Nutrition Diseases and their implications in terms of instrumental diagnostic, clinical and medical therapy. The clinical methodology and the pharmacological and instrumental therapy of diseases of the digestive system, of the liver, of the biliary tract and of the pancreas are specific areas of expertise.
