Pathology

This research-level reference provides a review of the morphological techniques that have become a primary method of anatomical study--correlating structure and function in lung physiology and pathology. Detailing the evolution of anatomy as a research discipline, it explores general structural techniques such as fixation, microscopy, morphometry, histochemistry, developmental methods, and airway casting; covers procedures for correlating structure and function including analysis of casts, cell culture, tracers, mucus gland isolation, and autoradiography; and describes methods for the induction of selected specific experimental models, emphasizing experimental pneumoconioses but including carcinogenesis, microsurgery, acute alveolar injury, and vascular and pleural pathology.
