A network of 18 Macintosh II-based workstations (Apple Computer Corp, Cupertino, CA) having high-resolution 1,024-line monitors is used for the radiologic instruction of medical students in our institution. Although this is an expensive system, it is time-shared with the Departments of Pathology, Physiology, Neuroscience, Biochemistry, Parasitology, and Microanatomy. The number of workstations available allows the entire class to access the system simultaneously by working in small groups. Because of its high resolution, medical imaging studies and text may be displayed on the same monitor side by side. We have chosen a question-and-answer format (Carousel). Forty-one radiologists in our affiliated medical institutions contributed cases. These cases in question-and-answer form supplement the lectures and film-based tutorials given as part of our mandatory third year radiology clerkship. |
