Slide2Go: A virtual slide collection for pathology education
Abstract
Slide2Go is a collection of digitized glass slides on the Web from a pathology departments slide set for second year medical students. The virtual slide collection can be accessed anywhere using any Web browser with Adobe Flash Player. It simulates the experience of viewing a glass slide under an optical microscope. Rare and unusual cases can be preserved and shared worldwide. Medical education can be enhanced by virtual slides.
