Color Atlas Of Basic Histology

This atlas provides undergraduate medical students with an understanding of the histological structures of various tissues and functional correlation. Beginning with an introduction to histology, microscopy and tissue preparation for microscopy, the following chapters illustrate histological aspects of different tissues (epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous), in different systems of the body. Each chapter concludes with a table summarising the microscopic structure of organs in the relevant system, and their function. The final chapter presents sample histology slides to enhance learning. Highly illustrated with nearly 340 clinical images and tables, the book also includes multiple choice and descriptive questions to assist revision.

This unique atlas includes over 475 full color photomicrographs while providing students with a readily accessible source of morphologic information for use in the identification of tissues and organs. Each photomicrograph is accompanied by explanatory captions that guide students to the key morphologic features that identify the function of the structures. The self-assessment section at the end of the book serves as a review tool for those structures that students traditionally have difficulty in identifying.

Designed to provide students with a foundation in understanding and interpreting histologic and cytologic preparations, Color Atlas of Veterinary Histology is a practical benchside reference focusing on the normal histology of eight common domestic species. This Third Edition has been revised with new images, information, and updated terminology throughout. Introductory chapters have also been expanded to offer more complete coverage of the basic types of tissues, providing an even more thorough grounding in the principles of histology. For the first time, the more than 900 photomicrographs are available digitally in an interactive atlas on CD, offering images available for download with zoom capability. The new edition of this veterinary-specific histology atlas provides veterinary and veterinary technician students with an essential pictorial resource for interpreting histologic preparations.
