Storage : Cytomine supports various different whole slide imaging formats, allowing you to benefit from all the scanners in your institution and to provide your students with the best didactic slides in your collection (see footnote for the supported whole-slide image formats). Just upload your images to your Cytomine server and make them readily available to your colleagues and students.

Collaborative annotation : your students can benefit from your annotations and feature descriptions, and those of your colleagues, or you can ask them to annotate specific structures to achieve your teaching goals. Cytomine helps students to discover features in whole-slide images by highlighting annotations and associating them with descriptions from your courses. The platform can also be synchronized with your institutional Learning Management System allowing automated student registration.

Human-Assisted Machine Learning, and Reporting are features that are more specific to research and routine in anatomo-pathology, but could be used innovative teaching activities. The limit to novel approaches in e-learning is only your imagination !
