Realistic virtual recreation of the experience of looking at skin biopsies – the closest you’ll get to looking down a microscope instead of at snapshots showing í¢’‚¬Ëœtypicalí¢’‚¬’„¢ lesions. 킠However, one has to know what one is looking at, as there are no text or arrows showing the salient features. Requires good bandwidth to work well. […]

Good but quite long and heavy online tutorial with not brilliant image quality.킠 Not comprehensive but you’ll learn a lot. Various other University of North Carolina resources are linked from here – some of these are good and good quality, but they are pdf files, often large, and some are simply pdfs of powerpoint presentations. […]

A good many nice quality photomicrographs, but without any explanation.킠 Created at the University of Tokushima in 2005 apparently (http://www.med.tokushima-u.ac.jp/english/article/0013468.html – but the Japanese pages look so much more interesting). So it’s really for illustrating rather than learning.

The AJKD Atlas of Renal Pathology comes mostly from Agnes Fogo (Vanderbilt).킠 It is very good indeed, and covers 55 diagnoses with excellent downloadable images and explanation.킠 However it is an atlas, so more useful as a reference than a learning resource, which is the only reason it drops a star in our rating system.
