Atlas Of Histology With Functional Correlations
Raina Giorno
diFiore's Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations explains basic histology concepts through realistic, full-color composite and idealized illustrations of histologic structures. Added to the illustrations are actual photomicrographs of similar structures, a popular trademark of the atlas. All structures are directly correlated with the most important and essential functional correlations, allowing students to efficiently learn histologic structures and their major functions at the same time.
Combining a reader-friendly textbook and a rich, full-color atlas, Histology: A Text and Atlas: With Correlated Cell and Molecular Biology, 9th Edition, equips medical, dental, health professions, and undergraduate biology and cell biology students with a comprehensive grasp of the clinical and functional correlates of histology and a vivid understanding of the structural and functional details of cells, tissues, and organs.
The 9th Edition of this bestselling resource reflects the latest advances in cellular and molecular biology and relevant imaging techniques, accompanied by large, high-resolution illustrations and full-color photomicrographs that clarify microanatomy in vibrant detail. System chapters align conveniently with curricula units and emphasize a clinical context, making this proven approach ideal for integrated curricula as well as standalone histology courses.
To accommodate reviewers' suggestions, the ninth edition integrates new information in cell biology with clinical correlates, which readers will see as new clinical information items highlighted in blue text and in clinical boxes (called "Folders"). For example, the last few years of the COVID-19 pandemic has sparked interest about the changes in normal tissue when infected by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. Several chapters contain descriptions of these changes with underlying explanations of cellular and molecular mechanisms and clinical features presented by patients. Additional changes include the following:

Master histology with idealized and actual photomicrography!
This thirteenth edition of Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations (formerly diFiore's) provides a rich understanding of the basic histology concepts that medical and allied health students need to know. Realistic, full-color illustrations as well as actual photomicrographs of histologic structures are complemented by concise discussions of their most important functional correlations.
Illustrated histology images show the idealized view, while photomicrographs provide the actual view to help students hone their skills in identifying structures.
New and improved layout helps students connect the morphology of a structure with its function.
Updated and expandedFunctional Correlations boxes integrated throughout chapters reflect new scientific information and interpretations.
NEW photomicrographs and electron micrographs provide views of microanatomy as experienced in practice.
Bulleted Chapter Summaries distill the most essential knowledge for rapid review.
NEW Additional Histologic Images sections round out each chapter with supplemental photomicrographs and electron micrographs.
NEW Chapter Review Questions allow students to assess their comprehension of each chapter with 375 questions and answers in the book and 250 more online in an Interactive Question Bank.
Now it its Fifth Edition, this best-selling text and atlas is the perfect text for medical, health professions, and undergraduate biology students. It combines a detailed textbook that emphasizes clinical and functional correlates of histology with a beautifully illustrated atlas featuring full-color digital micrographs of the highest quality.
This edition includes over 100 new illustrations, more Clinical Correlation boxes on the histology of common medical conditions, and new information on the molecular biology of endothelial cell function. Terminology throughout the text is consistent with Terminologia Anatomica.

Resting state functional connectivity MRI (rsfc-MRI) reveals a wealth of information about the functional organization of the brain, but poses unique challenges for quantitative image analysis, mostly related to the large number of voxels with low signal-to-noise ratios. In this study, we tested the idea of using a prior spatial parcellation of the entire brain into various structural units, to perform an analysis on a structure-by-structure, rather than voxel-by-voxel, basis. This analysis, based upon atlas parcels, potentially offers enhanced SNR and reproducibility, and can be used as a common anatomical framework for cross-modality and cross-subject quantitative analysis. We used Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) and a deformable brain atlas to parcel each brain into 185 regions. To investigate the precision of the cross-subject analysis, we computed inter-parcel correlations in 20 participants, each of whom was scanned twice, as well as the consistency of the connectivity patterns inter- and intra-subject, and the intersession reproducibility. We report significant inter-parcel correlations consistent with previous findings, and high test-retest reliability, an important consideration when the goal is to compare clinical populations. As an example of the cross-modality analysis, correlation with anatomical connectivity is also examined.

Objective: Integration of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging into neuronavigation was assessed to investigate its significance to determine the grade of malignancy in cerebral glioma surgery.
Methods: 22 consecutive patients visualized no or marginal contrast enhancement in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with suspicion for low-grade gliomas. In all patients fluoro-desoxy-glucose (FDG)-PET imaging was performed preoperatively. Following fusion of PET with MRI data sets a navigated open surgical tumor resection was performed to localize tissue specimen with contrast enhancement and FDG uptake. Histopathological evaluation was correlated with imaging characteristics.
Results: In MRI out of 7 patients with low contrast enhancement 3 patients revealed a higher grade of malignancy, while 6 patients out of 15 without contrast enhancement was diagnosed as low grade gliomas. In PET imaging high glucose uptake of 9 patients revealed anaplasia in five cases, while low uptake correlated in 6 of 13 patients with low grade of malignancy.
Conclusion: PET imaging tend to be superior over MRI imaging characteristics in terms of predicting grade of malignancy without showing statistical significance. Neuronavigation is a good tool to prove the clinical worth of new imaging modalities.
Neuronavigation is a well established computer assisted technique in neurosurgical routine and is nowadays wide spread in most departments. The conventional technique uses computer tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as basic visualization for surgical planning and intra-operative image guidance in navigation. Different additional image modalities like functional MRI, diffusion weighted imaging or cerebral angiography were integrated into navigated surgical procedures to enhance the visualized information in different indications for surgery [1], [2], [3], [4]. Since the early eighties positron emission tomography (PET) is available to visualize metabolic activity within vital tissue. Fluoro-desoxy-glucose (FDG) PET is used frequently to visualize glucose dependent energetic metabolic state in the brain. It has been hypothesized that increased rate of glucose metabolism within brain tumors is correlating with its grade of malignancy [5], [6], [7], [8].
Gliomas are the most common brain tumors. The histopathological grading defines the prognostic interference and leads to therapeutic decisions. Low-grade gliomas tend to progress to a higher grade of malignancy over time [9]. This course of transformation occurs due to focal mutations [10]. It is well known, that gliomas may represent a heterogeneous histological pattern. In open surgery of suspected low-grade gliomas the histopathological grading depends on the area, where the tissue specimen is taken. Since only a small part of tumor tissue is used for neuropathological investigation, there remains the risk that a more malignant part of the tumor which defines the final diagnosis is missed. In this context, we ae addressing two questions: How can we visualize malignant transformation in suspected low-grade gliomas? And, how can we localize intra-operatively the area of transformation?
