Histopathology Atlas of Acute Radiation Syndrome and Delayed Effects in Rhesus Macaques: Kidney, Lung, Heart, Intestine and Mesenteric Lymph Node

Histopathology Atlas of Acute Radiation Syndrome and Delayed Effects in  Rhesus Macaques: Kidney, Lung, Heart, Intestine and Mesenteric Lymph  Node provides a thoroughly illustrated review of the tissue damage and  reparative changes associated with standardized irradiation doses in  rhesus macaques. In addition to time-sequenced, routinely stained  histologic sections, the book presents results of numerous  histochemical, immunohistochemical and chromogenic in-situ stains that  provide insights into the pathogenesis of radiation-associated tissue  injury and repair. This book is compiled and written by a  board-certified veterinary pathologist with more than 40 years of  experience in the interpretation of experimentally induced tissue  alterations in laboratory animals.

This is an important resource  for researchers in the field of animal science radiation injury,  including radiation oncologists and individuals involved in disaster  preparedness related to accidental or deliberate radiation exposure in  large populations.
