Illustrations
of Normal and Pathological Conditions
http://www-medlib.med.utah.edu/WebPath/webpath.html
This site has an extensive collection of photographs of human pathologies
from the gross to the electron microscopic levels. Each illustration has
a brief useful legend. The site also has tutorials and other pedagogical
aids for many diseases including Alzheimer's disease, heart disease, cancers,
and diabetes mellitus. Use the extensive index to find many "treasures".
The contents of the site can be purchased on a CD-ROM and installed on
institutional sites with a site license. Then selected illustrations can
be incorporated conveniently into lectures, student activities, and assignments.
