Play the virtual autopsy game

For Friday fun, I thought I would introduce you to the virtual autopsy game (http://www.le.ac.uk/pathology/teach/va/titlpag1.html). This game was created at the University of Leicester in England for undergraduate students in th Clinical Division of Pathology.

Eighteen cases are available for students to study. First, you are presented with a case history.


After reading the case history, you can click on the interactive cadaver to see what was discovered in the autopsy.


Once you have completed your "autopsy," You can try to determine the cause of death. Many choices are offered, and when you get one wrong, there are hints to help you make a better choice.

So have fun this Friday!
