About WebPathology
WebPathology is an educational resource with high-quality pathology images of benign and malignant neoplasms and related entities. It was launched in 2003 by Dr. Dharam Ramnani, with an initial focus on urologic pathology. It was subsequently expanded to include other organ systems.
The site offers high-quality specimen photographs and photomicrographs accompanied by a discussion of pertinent clinical and pathologic features. Imaging studies and management are included wherever applicable. With rapid advances in the fields of cancer genomics and precision medicine, the focus of WebPathology has recently expanded to include illustrations of molecular pathways in various cancers, including sites of targeted intervention.
The Founder
Dr. Ramnani has been passionate about photographing human cancers from the early days of his residency training. He has collected several hundred thousand images which he hopes to share with a world-wide audience on this site.
