Rat Histopathology: A Glossary for Use in Toxicity and Carcinogenicity Studies

The need to update advances in histopathology that relate to toxicologic pathology has resulted in the stimulus to produce this second edition of Rat Histopathology. Consequently, each chapter has been expanded and updated, with more information on defining common and uncommon lesions, as well as on common strains of rat.

This second edition follows the philosophy of the first and reflects the interests of the authors in human pathology, a useful inclusion because of the increasing evidence over recent years that many pathological processes in the rodent are quite similar to those occurring in man.

This book will be of great value to toxicologists and pathologists as well as to medical and pharmaceutical libraries.
