Since histology is a visual subject, high quality images of cells and tissues are vital as a component of course material. In this book, concise text relates the structures seen in the images to biological function, and integrates clinical relevance by describing how the histology of tissues is affected in abnormal conditions.The book will enable the reader to critically evaluate the microscopic structures of tissues and organs and to recognize the association between morphology and cell activity with Introductory text at the beginning of each chapter summarising the key aspects of morphologyA "Macro to Micro" approach, with low magnifications of organs or tissues that enable better appreciation of the relevance of higher magnification imagesImages and artworks integrated into the...
