Dr. Rosen’s Flickr Collection of Pulmonary Pathology Images

About a year ago I mentioned Dr. Yale Rosen who posted some pulmonary pathology images on Flickr.

Dr. Rosen continues to post images to Flickr where you can now find his collection of more than 700 pulmonary pathology images and counting @ www.flickr.com/photos/pulmonary_pathology). There is an underscore.

The images are available for teaching and other non-commercial purposes in accordance with the CreativeCommons license. The collection is highly organized into sets and collections. For example, "Lung Neoplasms" is a collection and sets belonging to that collection include "Carcinomas", "Neuroendocrine Neoplasms", "Benign Neoplasms", "Mesenchymal Neoplasms", etc.

Each image is extensively annotated with keywords so that it is easy to search for and find whatever diagnosis and specimen type (gross, microscopic, cytology, X-ray, etc) that you might be searching for.

Dr. Rosen also maintains a website devoted to images of granulomatous diseases (www.granuloma.homestead.com). The images on that website mostly illustrate pulmonary pathology (sarcoidosis, tuberculosis,etc)

Many thanks to Dr. Rosen for an extensive collection of well cataloged pulmonary pathology images.
