- MD07.01 Development of the renal SystemUnderstand embryologic development of the kidneys and urinary tract, including ascent, rotation, and congenital anomalies, to explain structural variations and common congenital renal and urinary disorders.0
- MD07.02 Anatomy of the renal systemIdentify gross and microscopic anatomy of the kidneys, nephrons, ureters, bladder, and renal vasculature, correlating structure with function and recognizing clinically significant anatomic relationships.0
- MD07.03 Physiology of the renal systemExplain renal blood flow, glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption and secretion, urine concentration, electrolyte balance, and acid–base regulation to understand normal kidney function and systemic homeostasis.0
- MD07.04 Pathology of the renal systemAnalyze renal and urinary tract diseases, including glomerular, tubular, interstitial, and vascular disorders, linking pathophysiology to clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and disease progression.0
- MD07.05 Pharmacology of the renal systemDevelop skills in renal history-taking, physical examination, and interpretation of urine analysis, renal function tests, and imaging to identify and localize common renal and urinary tract conditions.0
- MD07.06 Clinical exmination of the renal systemDevelop skills in renal history-taking, physical examination, and interpretation of urine analysis, renal function tests, and imaging to identify and localize common renal and urinary tract conditions.0
