About Clinical physiology

Physiology is the study of the function of living organisms, including their organs and cells.
We offer lectures and practical training on physiology and other biological functions, providing knowledge related to their evaluation, diagnosis, examination methods, and techniques. Specifically, we teach the principles and implementation methods of electrocardiography (ECG), pulmonary function tests, blood pressure measurement, and echography (ultrasonography). Additionally, we cover diagnostic imaging analysis techniques.

Furthermore, we conduct research on functional changes in living organisms in various situations by applying these techniques.
