Current Achievements of Histology Science in Evaluating the Quality of Students of Medical Universities
Main Article Content
Abstract
Modern histology science is progressively employed for the assessment of medical students' learning experience, academic performance, and clinical competence. This grading system is used to identify and address the gaps in medical education. Histology enables the assessment of the quality of the learning experience of medical students and can highlight the weaknesses in the current academic curriculum. New imaging techniques and molecular biology developments have allowed for more detailed and higher resolution histological studies, leading to a better understanding of pathological diseases and enhancing the use of this discipline as an evaluation tool. Despite the limitations of histology as an isolated tool, its employment in conjunction with advanced techniques could overcome these limitations and aid in evaluating medical students' skills comprehensively.
