Mapping Human Pathology

Pathobin is an on-line repository where pathologists tin sack give away as well as part their pathology images.
Pathology images uploaded to Pathobin tin sack live on viewed past times anyone using the Leaflet.js mapping library.
You tin sack browse for pathology images on Pathobin using the 'Recent Images' gallery on the site's homepage or from the site index. When you lot choose an picture to thought on Pathobin a Leaflet map of the pathogen opens. Using the commons Leaflet navigation controls you lot tin sack pan as well as zoom the map to thought the picture inwards close-up detail.

There has been a long tradition of using JavaScript mapping libraries to map the human body. One of the get-go examples was the NYU School of Medicine Virtual Microscope.
Created past times the NYU School of Medicine the Virtual Microscope uses the Google Maps API to display as well as navigate scanned slides of microscopic images. Students as well as faculty members who are logged into the school's Learning Management System tin sack fifty-fifty add together markers to the slides to annotate as well as comment on slide features.

The University of New South Wales is too next inwards this tradition past times using the Google Maps API to exercise maps of human tissue downward to the private cell. You tin sack already explore the get-go map of human hip tissue.
This Google Map allows you lot to explore images captured alongside a scanning electron microscope. Creating map tiles from the electron microscope images allows the academy to exercise an interactive map of the hip tissue. The effect is this Google Map which allows researchers to pan as well as zoom into details inwards the microscope images, but every bit you lot tin sack alongside whatever interactive map.

The Genome Projector is a searchable database browser that uses the Google Maps API to render a zoomable user interface for molecular biology. The Genome Projector currently contains iv views, the Genome map, the Plasmid map, the Pathway map, as well as deoxyribonucleic acid walk.
The Genome Projector says that "In molecular biology, looking at reactions as well as behaviors of specific molecular components inwards microscopic levels is important. ... Therefore, researchers ask a scalable quest of view, having access to all of the microscopic, macroscopic, as well as mesoscopic levels of biological knowledge. Moreover, biological information is highly multi-dimensional past times nature, as well as agreement of the information requires multiple views, layers, or projections ..."
