Canine Osteology was the first educational software program marketed by the School of Veterinary Medicine. The School has a demonstration disk it sends out for review. Canine Radiographic Anatomy Dr. William J. Hornoff and John Doval are developing a series of programs used to teach radiological science. One program in the series simulates x-rays seen on film to teach students how to get the exposure needed to make a diagnosis. Dr. Nemi C. Jain uses this program to teach comparative hematology.
Students view images of abnormalities in leukocytes and bone marrow.
Dr. Gerald V. Ling, associate director of the Small Animal Clinic, incorporated 20 cases in various stages of completion into this program. The program gives students an opportunity to start clinical synthesis before their fourth year. Dr. Dennis Wilson says this program is a very useful laboratory teaching aid. Because students like to study clinical cases, Wilson incorporates the images into a case-based format. This program is designed to teach students the problem-solving skills needed to practice veterinary medicine.
