Interactive Histology
Project Overview Histology is a visually rich course where students learn to identify cell
and tissue structure. Students have access to a complete set of
slides throughout their course of study.
The Interactive Images for Histology were created using Java and runs on
the Curriculum Web Portal.
The interactive image web based program allows students to explore their
lab slides from anywhere. The added value in viewing the slides this way
is the rich annotation which details the specific structures medical students
need to learn.
