A Digital Resource on the Histology of Vessels & Nerves

1. A Digital Resource on the Histology of Vessels & Nerves Welcome to this digital resource on the histology of vessels and nerves. This resource is designed to aid your mastery of the histology of vessels and nerves by allowing you to revisit the material presented during lab. The material presented here corresponds with the material presented during lab. In fact you will need your lab exercise, the Histology of Vessels and Nerves to progress through this digital resource. We hope you find this material helpful. However it should not take the place of direct slide observation in the laboratory. To fully appreciate histological detail and completely explore a slide you should directly observe the slide through the microscope. Also all slide tests involve histology presented through the microscope.
