tailieunhanh - Atlas of human histology

This atlas provides medical, dental and biology students with an outstanding collection of histology images for all of the major tissues and organs. Microscope slides are shown as a series of high-resolution photographs of the same area at successively increasing magnifications to provide a sense of scale and proportion. This is exactly the way students examine specimens through an actual microscope. Each image is labeled with details a student should be able to recognize. Each chapter is prefaced with introductory text. | Robert L. Sorenson A Guide to Microscopic Structi Cells Tissues and Organs V _ z This atlas is a series of photographs ranging from low to high magnifications of the individual tissue specimens. The low magnification images should be used for orientation while the higher magnification images show details of cells tissues and organs. Although every effort has been made to faithfully reproduce the colors of the tissues a full appreciation of histological structure is best achieved by examining the original specimens with a microscope. This atlas is a preview of what should be observed. The photomicrographs found in this atlas come from the collection of microscope slide used by medical dental and undergraduate students of histology at the University of Minnesota. Most of these slides were prepared by Anna-Mary Carpenter . . during her tenure as Professor in the Department of Anatomy University of Minnesota Medical School . Each tissue specimen in its entirety has been digitized with a high resolution 40X or 60X lens to generate virtual microscope slides. The Virtual Microscope Collection includes additional slides which complement and extend the core slide collection. Producing the virtual slide collection and developing the web site for their presentation was done with the very capable assistance of Todd C. Brelje . The drawings that appear in the atlas are the product of Jean E. Magney who is accomplished both as an histologist and an artist. Her talented interpretation of biological structure and its artistic rendering greatly facilitate the learning and comprehension of histology. These drawings first appeared in Color Atlas of Histology Stanley L. Erland-sen and Jean E. Magney Mosby 1992. Robert L. Sorenson .
