The patient under the microscope [electronic resource] : educational multimedia exploring cells, tissues and disease / Howard Grossman, Virginia Grossman.

Contributor(s): Grossman, Howard | Grossman, Virginia.
Series: PUTM series. Publisher: [Parkville, Vic.] : University of Melbourne, c2006Edition: Version 2.0.Description: 1 CD-ROM ; 4 3/4 in.ISBN: 0734027370 (CD-ROM).Subject(s): Pathology | Histology | CytologyDDC classification: 611.018
Contents:
The current program includes: The Cell Under The Microscope. - Basic Tissues Under The Microscope. - Disease Process Under The Microscope. - Skin Under The Microscope. - The Cardiovascular System Under The Microscope.
Summary: The Patient Under the Microscope is a unique educational program that allows the user to direct their own journey of discovery as they explore the relationship between cells, tissues and disease. This multimedia resource fully integrates the basic principles of cell biology, histology and pathology with clinical problems. Because of the central role of the cell in determining how disease is expressed, the program is ideally placed to demonstrate how changes at the cellular level give rise to symptoms and signs in the patient and how advances in our understanding of disease at this level impact on diagnosis and management, i.e. the cell is the ultimate patient.
