MediaLab's Case Simulators use in-browser virtual microscopes to help teach and assess key laboratory skills.
Bacteriology Case Simulator
Forty-nine expert-reviewed cases, each with plate images, gram stain and microscopic zoom levels.
Blood Bank Case Simulator
The Blood Bank Case Simulator consists of 25 case studies in which users will analyze ABO and Rh typing results, antibody screens, and antibody identification panels to select compatible blood units. Each case features patient history, gel card images, and clickable antibody panels to simulate the daily responsibilities of a blood bank professional.
Blood Culture Gram Stain Case Simulator
Includes over 70 cases of positive blood culture gram stain smears, including aerobic and anaerobic organisms, as well as atypical findings such as Nocardia, Mycobacteria, and yeast.
Body Fluid Case Simulator
Thirty peritoneal and pleural fluid expert-reviewed cases, each with images of hemocytometer, cytospin slides, unknown nucleated cell identification, cell count calculation exercises, and review videos.
Red Blood Cell Morphology Case Simulator
Twenty-five case studies to teach identification hypochromasia, macrocytes, microcytes, Pappenheimer bodies, platelet clumps, polychromasia, schistocytes, sickle cells, spherocytes, target cells, teardrop cells, and more.
Urinalysis Case Simulator
Thirty expert-reviewed cases, each with 50 slide images. Cases include casts, crystals, and more.
White Blood Cell Case Simulator
