Hystory

Pathology and Forensic Medicine Department was founded on 4 july, 1963 by the resolution of the Director of the Mongolian State University as a branch of its Medical school.

Pathological Anatomy has been taught to students sinse 1944. From the time the department was found the students were taught Pathology and Forensic Medicine by foreign specialists ( from the former USSR ) and local teachers started teaching in 1959. At the same time macro and micro preparations were made. A foundation of Pathohistologic laboratory was laid in 1961-1962. This time period is a factual start of using light microscopies and micropreparations for teaching purpose.

Branch of Forensic medicine

The class of forensic medicine had been started teaching for the medical students from 1946. 1947 academic year. That time the classes had been being tauch by the Russian teachers as V. A. Zabelin and V. I. Jabin. The forensic professional expert V. N. Petrosyan worked at the forensic medicine. At present time we are using the following items for the student education: VCR, TV, slide project, photo albums, video classes, macro and micro specimens.
A history of our department is closely connected with development of Pathologic Anatomy and Forensic Medicine an Mongolia Institutions of pathologic anatomy and forensic medical services was founded in fourth decade of last century.
Professor D. Tsedev, Doctor of Medical Science, Ph.D., Dr. H. Lkhagvajav, Ph.D., Dr. I. Sanjaadorj, Ph.D, and senior teacher L. Baasanjav were the first ones who established educational, scientific and material base of the Department. Prof. T.Tsedev had been at the head of Pathology and Forensic Medicine Department for over 26 years.

Teaching background of the main staff of the Department is following:
1. Prof. L. Galtsog, Ph.D., ( 39 years of teaching experience, since 1962 )

5. Ass. Prof. E. Ganbat. First category Forensic Medical expert.
6. B. Undarmaa. Forensic Medical expert.
7. D. Chuluunbaatar. Pathologist.
There are 7 teachers, chief pathohistological laboratory and 1 cleaner at the Department teaching standard is 18 credit hours for lectures, 83,4 credits for practice. Total 101,4 credits.
11 trainees are involved in post graduate training, completing the residency training and fellowship.
The working process of our department during last decaded had constantly appeared problems as poor supplement of necessary equipment for education and research; all kind of reagents; educational and research microscopes; pathohistological laboratory equipment.
Most of the above mentioned instruments nowadays are out of usage.
One the big insolved problem is that we have not modern audiovisual instrument.
Through thirty years of work our department was equipped only with old Russian equipment and instruments.
The office address of our Department is: Building of Centre of Pathology and Forensic medicine, behind of state Central Clinical Hospital.
The pathological and forensic medical services
cover the whole range of pathological and forensic medical investigation over the Ulaanbaatar sity.
Our department provided over 20 hospitals in Ulaanbaatar with autopsy biopsy and cytology in vestigetions. About 1000 Forensic medical causes has done yearly. In all of the hospitals and forensic medical institutions we provide consultation services.

II STANDART OF CONTENT

1.1 Compulsory learning knowledge
- General concept of pathology, method of studying pathology

- Pathology of oncology
- Pathology of organ and systems disease
1.2 Minimum of compulsory learning knowledge
- The definition and nomenclature of pathology
- The explanation according to the microchange of etiology, stages, and pathogenesis
- To understand and to be able to explain changes of organs tissues cells level according to pathogenes of concrete disease
- To recognize and sketch the changes on cells level, which are looked through light microscope
1.3 The minimum of compulsory practical knowledge:
- In the macrolevel:
To be able to distinquish preparats from the departments collection by size and shape, color and volume and to dignose pathologies
- In the microlevel:
To be able to distinquish the basic changes in preparats, wich were watched during practice

III STANDART OF TEACHING METHODOLOGY

3.1 The lecture of pathological anatomy
- divided into 2 parts: General pathology and partial pathology
Pathological anatomy: by studying quality and material base of general process of disease has a possibility definining etiology pathogenesis and it is beginning pathogenic development and complication to conduct lecture by it is theme and indeveloping students mind and themselves and by using criptogramme which they study by themselves pictures slides and visual aids. Lectures are taught by the teachers who have secentific degree and title great skcill.
3.2 Practical lesson of pathological anatomy is conducted by using micro and specimens these show the changes of disease. The base of the these changes the students define pathological preparats on the macro preparats among them pathology of that disease, external condition of pathology, size, form, consistensy, cutting surface, wound, scarf, haemorrhage, tumor, and so on. Distinquish preparat according to the theme of practical lesson are looked through the microscope the students master the ability of diagnosing micro slide on the base of the changes of structure. In the practical lesson the students must recognize 4 -5 macro, microslides of the pathology by themselves.
3.3 Seminar lesson: as a result of conducting lessons by raising question and connecting the changes with the classification, stages and pathogenese in the different level of pathological anatomy, clinical and morphological idea is origeneted.
3.4 Evaluation of students knowledge: It will be evaluated by test, discussion and practical skills. Evaluation of recognizing, explaining and diagnosing macro and micro preparats, to have a fund of evaluating knowledge. They can catch up with by independent work and by taking consultations.
3.5 To involing the other students to research work, elective lessons study the then deeply.
3.6 The bases of evaluation are ratign score, activity during the lessons and skills, in recognizing micro and macro preparats and the middle mark of tests.
