Heart histology

This video tutorial explores the histology of the heart, starting with an overview of its function and anatomy. It delves into the gross anatomy, describing the heart's chambers and valves. The tutorial then examines the heart's microscopic anatomy, focusing on the epicardium, myocardium, and endocardium layers. It also covers the heart's conductive system and autonomic innervation. Finally, the video discusses the structure of heart valves and presents a clinical scenario involving myocardial infarction, highlighting changes observable in histological slides.
