Abstract

Online practical at the virtual microscope Biolucida based on the lectures "Anatomie" 1+2 with an introduction in histological techniques. In the first part participants study examples of epithelia, connective and supporting tissues, muscle and nervous tissue. The second part is devoted to the microscopic anatomy of selected organs.

Objective

By working with the virtual microscope, participants gain a deeper understating of the lecture topics, in particular in microscopic anatomy. They acquire the ability to examine tissue sections, to recognize organ-typical structures and artifacts, as well as to identify the organ of origin.

Content

General histology: - Epithelial tissue - Connective tissue - Cartilage and bone tissue - Nervous tissue - Muscle tissue Special histology: - Digestive organs - Nervous system and sensory organs - Endocrine organs - Urogenital organs - Circulatory and respiratory organs
