Introduction

This page lists the slide sets used in teaching Histology to undergraduate Medical and Science Students in the School of Anatomy. Note that the overall composition of slide sets will change with time. These slides are used to show both developing and adult tissues using typical histological stains. Additional demonstration slides are used in classes. Slides should be viewed in relation to the types of tissues that are developing in the embryo.

Each section of Notes on page 5 has a list of relevant slides to that system. No attempt has been made in this current Program to give full histological descriptions of slides. Many Universities have also begun to list some histology slides with descriptions (see WWW Links).

The School of Anatomy UNSW has an excellent Histology Program under development "The Fabric of Life", for more details contact Dr B. Freeman.

The most current catalogue of slides can be found at the School of Anatomy WWW Site.
