Zusammenfassung

Das Lernen am Computer (E-Learning) ist von zunehmender Bedeutung für die zertifizierte ärztliche Aus- und Weiterbildung. Auch im Bereich der Zytologie gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten, sich mittels frei zugänglicher Online-Kurse weiterzubilden. Ein Teil davon wird in dieser Arbeit vorgestellt. Für die Lernplattform PathoBasiliensis (http://www.unibas.ch/patho/) haben wir verschiedene Lernwerkzeuge zum Thema Zytologie entwickelt: Eine Bilddatenbank mit 726 Zytologiebildern, einen Zytopathologiekurs zur Vermittlung von Grundlagenkenntnissen und ein Lernspiel für die histologisch-zytologische Korrelation. Zwei Tests zum Thema Lungen- bzw. Urinzytologie wurden von insgesamt 383 internationalen Teilnehmern absolviert. Die virtuelle Mikroskopie wird die Telezytologie und die Aus- und Weiterbildung im Bereich der Zytopathologie revolutionieren.

Abstract

Computer-based learning (E-learning) is of increasing importance for the education of students and professionals. Various publicly accessible online courses for cytologists now exist and some of these are presented in this paper. For the learning platform PathoBasiliensis (http://www.unibas.ch/patho/) we have developed several learning materials: a database of 726 cytology images, a cytopathology course to teach the basics of cytopathology, and a game testing histologic-cytologic correlation. Tests on lung and urinary cytology were attended by 383 international participants. The virtual microscopy technology will revolutionize telecytology and cytology education.
