BRS Cell Biology and Histology is an outline-format review for USMLE and course exams, with abundant electron micrographs and conceptual line drawings, high-yield Clinical Considerations boxes, review questions at the end of each chapter, and a comprehensive USMLE-format examination at the end of the book. This Sixth Edition features 60 new full-color photomicrographs and a new full-color design with colorized line drawings. Content and questions have been updated, new Clinical Considerations have been added, and Clinical Considerations have been better integrated into the content. A companion website will offer the fully searchable text and an interactive question bank.
