This
laboratory exercise includes 122 gross and microscopic neuropathological
specimens that are correlated with 82 CT or MR images. Each of these images is
accompanied by a description, and the neuroimages also include a clinical
vignette. Diseases covered includes: Vascular Diseases, Edema and
Herniation, Neoplasms, Demyelinating Disorders, Infectious Diseases, Cranio-Spinal
Trauma, Toxic and Metabolic Disorders, Developmental Disorders and Degenerative
Disorders.
The
Department of Pathology at University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine has
formatted many pathology cases for online viewing. The case database is growing
constantly, with several members of the department and residents contributing
cases on a regular basis. These cases fall into several categories and reflect
the broad scope of our department's clinical and diagnostic expertise.
