NTP Nonneoplastic Lesion Atlas

http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/nnl
The NTP Nonneoplastic
Lesion Atlas is a new
searchable, Web-based
resource containing
thousands of high-quality
images and guidelines for
diagnosis of nonneoplastic
lesions in experimental
rodent models.
The atlas will be used by NTP
and its many pathology
partners around the world
to standardize rat and
mouse lesion diagnosis,
terminology, and the way
lesions are recorded.
When completed, the atlas
will contain 56 sections,
each focusing on a
particular organ or tissue.

This is a must-have
resource for
every pathologist.
