We are a group of parasitologists and clinical microbiologists in
Sweden who have started to build up a digital image database in
parasitology. Step two will then be to compile the image database
together with informative texts into an interactive database, WWW
and/or CD ROM, to be accessible via Internet, and distributed on
CD-ROM to medical schools, depts of infectious diseases and
clinical microbiological laboratories.
The final product will be free of charge (a nominal charge for
distribution only, in the case of CD ROM).
We are now looking for partners who would be willing to supply
high quality slides with short descriptions/patient data. Your
slides will be returned once we have scanned them, and we will
treat them with care. Your images will not be used commercially,
and your name and department will be displayed in the marigin of
each picture att all times when it is used.
We appreciate images of all kinds, e.g. patients displaying
clinical features, gross anatomy, autopsy, microscopy, electron
microscopy, epidemiological maps. Just make sure that you supply
clinical/experimental data.
Slides can be sent directly to:
