  Introduction: The interest of Virtual Microscopy (VM) as a means of simulation learning in Pathological Anatomy and Cytology (PCA) is growing continuously. Its value for the acquisition of skills related to this discipline and the degree of satisfaction of learners have long been compared to those of the conventional method, using Optical Microscopy (OM). The results are conflicting, highlighting the limited use of VM in the daily practice of teaching PCA. The objective of our work was to compare the learning of general pathological anatomy by MV to that by MO, in terms of skills acquisition and levels of student satisfaction. Methods: Prospective study, involving 45 Students Of Second Cycle Of Medical Studies (SCMS), in pathological anatomy internship. Ten histological slides were analysed in OM for 21 students and in VM for 24 students, for a period of 10 days. The choice of the lea.. Read More»
