SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Forensic Histopathology presents findings in forensic histology, immunohistochemistry, and cytology based on microscopic investigations. The text provides practitioners with detailed information and guidance on how microscopy can help to clarify the cause of sudden and unexpected death.
