This "essentials" version of the Bank comprises one CD (rather than the five CDs of the complete set), providing a selection of cases over a broad area, including head, neck, and central nervous system; thorax and contained viscera; abdomen and viscera; pelvis and obstetrics; and orthopedics. It contains searchable case histories with descriptive texts and corresponding images. Every image can be sized to a particular monitor; rotated; manipulated on screen by zoom, contrast, and brightness; and changed from negative to positive.
