More than 600 full-color illustrations bring medical histology to life Market: US medical students (18,750) and international medical graduates (12,000), physician assistant students (2,850 per year), nurse practitioner students (5,500 per year) Acclaimed for its ability to explain the relationship between cell and tissue structure and their function in the human body The leading text on the subject for more than three decades
The histology text the medical field turns to first -- authoritative, concise, beautifully illustrated, and completely up-to-date More than 600 full-color illustrations For more than three decades, Junquiera's Basic Histology has been unmatched in its ability to explain the relationship between cell and tissue structure with their function in the human body. Updated to reflect the latest research in the field and enhanced with more than 600 full-color illustrations, the thirteenh edition of Junqueira's represents the most comprehensive and modern approach to understanding medical histology available anywhere.
Annotation Featuring more than 1000 state-of-the-art photographs and drawings, Junqueira's has been the leading text in medical histology and microscopic anatomy for more than three decades. This 14th edition has been revised to feature a new full-colour presentation, new art, and the addition of an online learning centre.
This book "offers the most comprehensive approach to the relationship between tissue structure and function and the physiologic response in the human body. Features: showcases more than 600 high-quality photomicrographs, electron micrographs and illustrations, 500 of which are in full color ; emphasize cell biology as the most fundamental approach to understanding structure and function of tissues and organs ; clear and comprehsensive explanations of mciroscopic anatomy ; full-color photomicrographs prepared from new tissue samples feature distinctive labeling that clearly pinpoints the elements of interest and enhances the didactic nature of the book ; bonus image library CD-ROM includes all of the photomicrographs and illustratuons in the book ; medical applications relate histology to pathobiology, diagnosis, and clinical aspects of disease ; [and much more]." - back cover.
This book emphasizes the relationships and concepts that link cell and tissue structures with their functions. It begins with a description of the structure and function of cells, then presents the four basic tissues of the body, and concludes with individual chapters on each organ and organ system. Cell biology is emphasized as the most fundamental approach to the understanding of structure and function. An image library CD-ROM also includes the halftones and line art illustrations in the book. The image library would function as an atlas to the text.
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.

Dermoscopy is a non-invasive, widely used diagnostic tool that aids the diagnosis of skin lesions and is proven to increase the accuracy of melanoma diagnosis. This book is a practical guide to dermoscopy for clinicians. The text begins with an overview of the technique, how it links clinical dermatology and histopathology, the dermoscope, and pattern recognition. The following sections provide in depth coverage of the application of dermoscopy and clinical features in the diagnosis of different dermatologic disorders, including vascular lesions, skin tumours, autoimmune dermatoses, pigmentary disorders, and much more. The final chapters discuss dermoscopy in diagnostic dilemmas and in therapeutic monitoring, also providing a selection of algorithms to assist learning. The text is highly illustrated with more than 500 clinical images and each topic concludes with a keynote message summarising the salient dermoscopic features. Key points Practical guide to diagnostic dermoscopy for clinicians In depth discussion on use of the dermoscope, histopathology, and pattern recognition Covers numerous dermatologic disorders Keynote messages summarise salient points to assist learning
