🛈We invite you to join us in the room. In-room audio can be variable, but you can sometime here informative discussions and the sounds of the case. Sometimes the physician is just working and there is no audio explanation. Remember, these are real case for real families, not produced for the site. Please turn on closed captions to assist, as sometimes the physician is wearing a heavy fume mask. And please feel free to check if there is “voice-over” audio instead.
🛈In development. Some cases have voice-over audio. Please check back as additional cases are updated with this feature.
🛈Some cases have anatomy pin video to assist with anatomy identification as you watch the case. The list of pins is provided at the right.
🛈Draw on, mark up and label the video with the interactive tools. Or use the laser pointer.
