Medical Image Resources

The Sladen Library has developed a web page with links to literally thousands of images on the internet – Sladen Medical Image Resources.

Here are some highlights of the web site:

• Anatomy.TV (Ovid) – This contains one of the world’s most detailed 3D models of human anatomy online.
• Gray’s Anatomy – More than 1,200 engravings from the classic 1918 edition of this classic textbook.
• History of Medicine Images – Includes close to 70,000 images from all aspects of the history of medicine, compiled by the National Library of Medicine
• MedlinePlus’s Medical Encyclopedia – Useful information and graphics, very suitable for patients and family members.
• The Visible Human Project – The National Library of Medicine has created complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the normal male and female human bodies

The Medical Image web page also includes specialized web sites dealing with radiology, dermatology, neurology, anatomy and pathology images.
