Histology Guide teaches the visual art of recognizing the structure of cells and tissues and understanding how this is determined by their function. Rather than reproducing the information found in a histology textbook, a user is shown how to apply this knowledge to interpret cells and tissues as viewed through a microscope.

Histology is the microscopic study of tissues and cells used in understanding the pathogenesis and diagnosis of various diseases. Cells are the tiny living units that form the tissues, organs and structures within the body.
Histology, often referred to as microscopic anatomy, is the scientific discipline dedicated to the study of biological tissues at a cellular level. It uses specialized techniques to reveal the detailed structure and organization of cells and the materials surrounding them, known as the extracellular matrix.
