I spent time finishing triages for contributions to MERLOT (http://www.merlot.org) this week. I discovered some amazing apps. Draw MD is one - http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=906206
Actually Draw MD is many apps. It has anatomical images that the user can modify to teach others. While it was designed to assist physicians to teach patients, it has possibilities for all health science educators and students. The user can draw on the image, add text, and use "stamps." The video from YouTube shown below provides an example using a urology image. The final image can be saved or emailed. Instructors might want to create images to use in slide presentations for lectures. Students might create images to share what they understand about disorders.
