Gastrointestinal Tract - Histology
Introduction
It would be difficult to show all associated histology on a single page as there are many different components of the gastrointestinal tract and associated organs. Therefore this page should be considered as simply a start page containing image galleries and links to explore more specific topics shown below.
Please note that most of these histology images are adult tissues and may be representative sections from other species.
Opening a specific image from the gallery will provide additional description notes, species, staining and links to associated resources.
