CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS.

Adjunct Professor Flippin.

The purpose of this course is to familiarize the student with modern
laboratory methods as applied to the diagnosis of disease. The systematic
examination of blood, sputum, vomitus, urine, fæces, exudates, transudates
and milk is first practiced; after which, specimens from selected cases
in the wards of the Hospital are studied with reference to the application
of information thus obtained to the recognition of specific
diseases.
