544 Histopathology Videos on YouTube

A pathologist by the screen name of WashingtonDeceit has uploaded 544 histopathology videos since he joined YouTube on February 03, 2007. The videos last between 2 and 5 minutes and are professionally made and narrated. I am not an expert in the field but this looks like a useful resource to me.

We are planning to ask the nephrology fellows at the Cleveland Clinic what they think about the renal histopathology videos via a web-based survey (SurveyMonkey.com).

This is one example of the videos:


Histopathology Kidney -- Interstitial nephritis

The author of the videos has agreed to have them embedded in AskDrWiki.
