Characteristic of the subject
Seminars oriented on practical study of histological slides broaden knowledge of microscopic structures of basic tissue types. Students instructed by experienced histologists will practise identification of principal structures in tissues with the use of light microscopes. Moreover, the students become familiar with principles of processing digitalized images and modern tuition tools incl. library of histological slides, internet atlases, virtual microscopes and interactive images of histological slides.
