Course objectives
Histology is medical branch that studies microscopic structure of plant and animal organisms incl. the human body. Histology is traditionally classified into cytology and general histology, which deal with morphologic and functional features of cells and tissues and microscopic anatomy that describes the structure and function of organs.
