Great advantage realized: any cases can be used no matter how small the sampling
Savings in time, cost for producing glass slide sets; scans more durable
Requires one-time extra effort in selecting field for scan, proofing master scans in detail prior to duplication
Needs faculty rehearsal for facile presentation

Faculty should avoid sensory overload of participants: choose either virtual microscopy or static images (PowerPoints) at any one time. Two screens too much!

Subsequent courses based on scanning virtual microscopy cases:PMB AAOMP (San Antonio 2006
- through 2009)ASCP Pulmonary Pathology (A. Churg)
(first offering 2006)USCAP Specialty conferences and some
short courses beginning 2006

ASCP with 3 of 12 Education courses now based on Virtual Microscopy
USCAP: All specialty conferences and majority of short courses beginning 2009 in virtual microscopy format
new venture – APECS(anatomic pathology electronic
case series) for CME credit.

Allows response to questions from clinicians, effective review of microscopy.
Software platform assures structured library for patient slide records.
(demonstration) Problems: time required for scanning
- hardware upgrade required

Lawyers very savvy in adopting this method (case 4 months ago reviewed solely on basis of scans sent from legal firm)
Avoids issues regarding securing original glass slides (chain of custody, etc.).
Ideal for identifying original slides with inclusion of labels on macro image
Expedites court room presentation of microscopy.

Problems with providing evidence ahead of time to other side’s counsel (lengthy time required to burn CD’s or DVD’s).
Potential problems explaining relationship of this method to conventional photomicrographs used at trial (e.g. PowerPoint)
Some lawyers apprehensive: ?being tricked
Caution must be used in explaining microscopy to lay jury.

For better or worse scanning virtual microscopy is here to stay and will continue to gain a foothold in many applications, e.g. pathology courses, internet CME programs, legal cases.
At present (2009) convenience of glass slide projection for clinical conferences cannot be equaled with scanning
