The database is currently set up on a basic Linux server within the facility however, to cope with concurrent file access by large numbers of up to 150 students, it will require a permanent home on a dedicated server within the School. The image files have been linked, via thumbnails, to a database that captures all relevant metadata for each histological section (filename, tissue type, organ system, species, section plane, histological stain, section ID, supplier, objective magnification etc) to facilitate easy sorting and data retrieval. The datasets, totalling 4TB, have been converted into the Zoomify .ziff image file format to enable easy and rapid on-line browsing, zooming and navigation (similar to that of Google Earth) and calibrated to allow feature measurement. Over 400 histological sections, encompassing both normal and pathological tissues, were painstakingly scanned and digitised in high resolution using the facilities Objective Imaging Surveyor slide scanning system. The Bioimaging Hub has recently completed work in digitising the School’s extensive histopathology slide repository. Both local users and worldwide users actively and repeatedly view cases in our study set.Image: The virtual histology slide box and viewer – a resource that holds fantastic potential for BIOSI teaching, research and public engagement. Our trainees are very satisfied with the freedom to preview either the glass slides or WSI and review the WSI postconference. Conclusions: We implemented a low-cost, publicly available repository of WSI slides for resident education. Worldwide, 955 unique IP addresses from 52 countries have viewed cases in our site. Residents are able to review cases from home and from their mobile devices. Based on resident evaluations, the interface was easy to use and demonstrated minimal latency. Over 16 months, we uploaded 1366 cases from 77 conferences and ten study sets, occupying 793.5 GB of cloud storage. Results: Residents preferred our OpenLayers WSI implementation to Ventana Virtuoso, Google Maps API, and OpenSlide. We measured site utilization and conference participation. We then scanned weekly unknown conference cases and study set cases and uploaded them to our custom built WSI viewer located at. Materials and Methods: We surveyed residents regarding their preference between four unique WSI systems. Our objective was to create an inexpensive whole slide image (WSI) education suite to address these limitations and improve the education of pathology trainees. However, the cases have not been previously available digitally, have not been collated for postconference review, and were not accessible to a wider audience. Background: Our institution's pathology unknown conferences provide educational cases for our residents.
