Important Note: Medicine is an ever-changing

science undergoing continual development. Re-

search and clinical experience are continually

expanding our knowledge, in particular our

knowledge of proper treatment and drug ther-

apy. Insofar as this book mentions any dosage or

application, readers may rest assured that the

authors, editors, and publishers have made

every effort to ensure that such references are in

accordance with the state of knowledge at the

time of production of the book.

Nevertheless, this does not involve, imply, or ex-

press any guarantee or responsibility on the part

of the publishers in respect of any dosage in-

structions and forms of applications stated in the

book. Every user is requested to examine care-

fully the manufacturers’ leaflets accompanying

each drug and to check, if necessary in consulta-

tion with a physician or specialist, wether the

dosage schedules mentioned therein or the con-

traindications stated by themanufacturers differ

from the statements made in the present book.

Such examination is particularly important with

drugs that are either rarely used or have been

newly released on the market. Every dosage

schedule or every form of application used is en-

tirely at the user’s own risk and responsibility.

The authors and publishers request every user to

report to the publishers any discrepancies or in-

accuracies noticed.

Preface

This new English edition has been completely revised and updated. The

pocket atlas is meant as a companion to lectures. It also serves as a valuable

orientation tool for course work in microscopic anatomy. More than ever be-

fore, histology plays a very important role in medicine and biology. There-

fore, the short instructive texts have been updated so that they incorporate

the latest scientific findings. An understanding of micromorphological tech-

niques is a prerequisite for the study of biochemistry, physiology and the

relatively young discipline of molecular cell biology. Accordingly, cytology

and histology rank high in the curriculum.

This pocket atlas does not attempt to provide a complete theoretical knowl-

edge of histology, which may be approached using comprehensive works on

cytology, histology and microscopic anatomy. It rather conveys a basic

understanding of the elements in histology and the microscopic anatomy of

the human body. Students of histology will value this pocket atlas as a course

companion book while using microscopic techniques. The atlas will help

them to recognize the crucial elements and structures in a histological image

and make it easier to arrive at the correct diagnosis.

You will find 16 tables in the appendix. Students have suggested this addi-

tion. With the help of these tables, students can test their ability to recognize

and interpret the relevant structures in histological images.

The intuitive layout of the current edition makes it easy to find references.

Many new images have been added.

I amgrateful tomy colleagues of the Lübeck Institute of Anatomy for their in-

valuable assistance in creating this new edition. The names of my colleagues

who graciously provided original images are listed in the appendix.

My secretary, Mrs. Roswitha Jönsson, was an extraordinary help to me. She

took care of the final corrections to the manuscript. My thanks go to Mr. Al-

brecht Hauff and Dr. Wolfgang Knüppe who supervised this edition with

their customary care. Special thanks also go the talented team at the Georg

Thieme Verlag.

I hope that this latest edition of the pocket atlas will be a helpful guide for

students of medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, biology and related

sciences. I wish that it might open your window to the fascinating world of

the smallest structures of the organism.
