Digital imaging as a teaching tool for pathologists

Abstract:
Digital Imaging is a technology which should be of considerable interest to pathologists as the use of gross and microscopic pathology images plays an important part in their role as medical educators. Digital imaging may have important advantages over conventional film photography which can be exploited by the pathologist to create all-digital presentations. In this article, the basic components of digital imaging are described, along with an affordable and practical approach which should allow most pathologists to begin to explore this medium.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
