Annotation
Pathophysiology is a bridge between theoretical medical subjects and clinical studies. Pathophysiology studies changes in the human body as influenced by various diseases.
It collects data regarding the causes of various diseases and data regarding the functional changes occurring in various organs systems, organs, tissues and cells.
