Each autopsy is divided into 3-5 minute video parts. These can be watched in order to view the entire case. Or, accessed via the
search function,
Body Map or
History for specific content of interest, case comparisons, or focused anatomic/pathologic studies.
The Anatomy Panel is a growing collection of selected videos which pause to highlight anatomy using numbers and pointers. Each number identifies an anatomic structure listed to the right of the video. This functions like “anatomy pins” found in a cadaver lab.
Cases with digital anatomy pins can be found by selecting “Anatomy Panel” under the top “Features” menu; or by clicking here.
-Search by Case, Body System or Search Term.
-The first (top) search box lists institutional content for site contributors. This function is in development.
-The second search box (“Cases”) lists cases (Case 1, Case 2, etc.).
-The third search box (“Body System”) lists body system (Cardiovascular, Endocrine, etc.).
-The fourth (bottom) search box allows use of specific search terms (“Superior vena cava,” “hyoid bone,” etc.).
More:
-Search for anatomy within a case or compare anatomy across cases.
You may search for a finding within a case. Or, you may compare one findings across cases. For example, when you search by case and select Case 1 and then add the search term “right coronary a.,” you will select videos from Case 1 that show the right coronary a.. If you do not select by case and simply enter search term “right coronary a.,” you will select videos from all cases that show the right coronary a..
-Search for isolated anatomic structures or anatomic relationships.
More than one search term can be entered in the search term box to refine or expand your video access. For example, entering “superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, atrium” will show video including all these structures.
If this happens, the following are possibilities:
-The term may be listed under different language or spelling. Please try your term in singular or plural (“lung” or “lungs”). Or try an alternate term (“cardiac” or “heart”).
-Our cases may not yet contain the anatomy or pathology you are looking for. The library archiving function is growing and we appreciate your input and questions. Please feel free to check with us to see if we can help find what your are looking for.
There are several ways to access video.
-Use the Library.
-Select a body region from Body Map.
-Select the case number form the History.
-Select a topic from the Clinical Panels.
Yes. You may find a hub tour, tutorial videos and a skill-check on the
Site Training page.
