[Educational program of clinical laboratory medicine to develop the ability to use proper laboratory examinations in medical practice].
A model core curriculum for medical education was proposed in 2001 as a guideline to standardize and improve the educational program in Japanese medical schools. Many subjects involved in clinical laboratory medicine were listed in this model core curriculum. Original and characteristic educational curricula in each medical school were also required in this guideline. In our university, we constructed the educational program of clinical laboratory medicine with lectures, clinical practice, and small group seminars including reversed CPC, according to the guideline. We need further trials to achieve the goal, i.e. education to develop the ability to use proper laboratory examinations in medical practice, as a good clinical doctor.
