Traditional histology, cytology and pathology education using the optical microscope has several disadvantages: a complex optical system is necessary, while the number of participating students is limited; handling and navigating on glass slides is difficult and students can access instruction materials only in the classroom.
By integrating a slide management framework, an advanced digital slide viewing application and a flexible examination software, 3DHISTECH establishes a digital learning environment for histology, cytology and pathology in higher education of medical, veterinary and life sciences.
