ABPath’s Histology Primer

The American Board of Pathology’s primer offers easy-to-navigate learning modules with written text and mini-lectures with slides. At the end of each module, residents can test their knowledge with a short quiz. The Primer also offers an opportunity for them to become familiar with using virtual microscopy, the digital viewing of microscopic images, like those used in board certification exams.
