Course structure: in each meeting in the morning will be dedicated to the theoretical treatment of biological assumptions and clinical indications of procedures by Prof. Ugo Covani and the afternoon at the practical exercises with Prof. Covani and one or more tutors. At the end of the course, and after the necessary verifications also for the purposes of the ECM, a certificate of improvement of the Saint Camillus International University will be issued in addition to the credits.
