Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) has been significantly advanced by the development of inexpensive multimedia personal computers (PCs). As a part of efforts to integrate PC workstations as the primary interface to the anatomic pathology information system, we undertook an evaluation and implementation of image-based resident workstations drawing on technology and software now available. The goal was to develop an integrated diagnostic and research data center using PC workstations. After considerable analysis we implemented a Resident's Resource Center (RRC) to augment the training environment of the resident pathologist by providing productivity tools for the writing, research, and presentation needs of the trainee. We also provided video- and text-based education applications specifically tailored to the training pathologist. This led to the creation of two types of Windows-based workstations. The Productivity Workstation consists of a flatbed scanner, laser printer, and photorecorder connected to a 486-type PC. The Education Workstation consists of a high-resolution monitor and video disc player with bar code scanner connected to a 486-type PC. We briefly review the literature concerning CAI in pathology; outline the hardware, software, personnel and cost concerns that we faced in setting up our RRC; provide a partial list of vendors and programs currently on the market; review the software we have installed; and discuss the results of our efforts.
