Klappentext

The gold-standard in veterinary histology textbooks, updated and revised, with new clinical correlations In the newly revised seventh edition of Dellmann's Textbook of Veterinary Histology, a team of distinguished veterinary professionals delivers a comprehensive update on the function of cells, tissues, and organs in domestic animal species. It effectively bridges the gap between anatomy and physiology and is filled with high-quality electron micrograph and color micrograph images. The book is a comprehensive resource on animal tissue structure and function and contains a basic history of veterinary histology, including cytology and microscopic anatomy. A companion website - with approximately 800 high-resolution, color images - rounds out the offering, with new and updated illustrations. Readers will also find:

• New clinical correlations and clinical application sections in each chapter, making the book even more relevant to students of veterinary histology aspiring to a clinical career
• Comprehensive explorations of cell, tissue, and organ structure and function, updated with the most current knowledge and research

• Practical discussions of histology basics, organized by body region to emphasize comparative species information Perfect for DVM students taking first-year veterinary histology, Dellmann's Textbook of Veterinary Histology will also benefit students of veterinary nursing, graduate students, and veterinary researchers and professionals in practice seeking an authoritative reference on the subject.
