The study of the structure of cells and tissues; usually involves microscopic examination of tissue sections
The field of medicine that studies tissue under the microscope Histological evaluations of liver biopsy samples are helpful in the diagnosis and monitoring of possible liver damage in chronic HBV and HCV carriers
The study of the structure of living tissue For example, the "histology" of a tumor is determined by a biopsy of the tumor which is looked at under a microscope
the structure, esp the microscopic structure, of organic tissues histologically, adv
The study of the structure of cells and tissues; usually involves microscopic examination of tissue slices
Branch of biology concerned with the composition and structure of plant and animal tissues in relation to their specialized functions. Its aim is to determine how tissues are organized at all structural levels, from cells and intercellular substances to organs. Histologists examine extremely thin slices of human tissue under microscopes, using dye to increase the contrast between cellular components
the branch of biology that studies the microscopic structure of animal or plant tissues
The study of the microscopic structure of living tissue (histology) that is in good health (as opposed to pathological histology which studies that of diseased tissue)
The study of the microscopic structure of living tissue (histology) of diseased tissue (as opposed to normal histology which studies the histology of healthy tissues)
