As of July 2007, these pages are no longer being maintained. There is a smaller selection of links on our new web pages, under the links menu at the far right side.


The Pathology Internet Resource Pages were first compiled back in the dark ages, like 9 or 10 years ago, when most people were not routinely using the Internet and finding any kind of information related to pathology was like unearthing a dragon's hoard. Now that searching the web is more like digging into an ant hill, we have tried to limit our listings and rely on people's use of general search engines. However, there are some pages that are just difficult to give up. Some of these are a looser fit than others...
