Anatomists Should Underline the Geometry of Some Special Structures

Abstract

shape and geometry by giving a very important example: the hepatocyte! The hepatocytes are the main liver parenchymal cells that are highly valuable in research purposes. In vitro models of hepa- tocytes would be of great importance to understand the physiological functions of liver and pathological processes of liver diseases. We aim to underline the hypothesis that geometry and functional modulation together with histology and gross anatomy may be linked to functional and pathological properties and stress on the way of learning and also teaching anatomy.
