"If the Nucleus images were free, I would use approximately 50 per year of them to greatly enhance the myriad projects given to me by my advanced-placement level biology courses. An example of such projects include anatomical descriptions, explanations of the pathological processes of certain organs, and other things of this nature."

"The images that I have seen are better than most sites. The animations are wonderful as well. I especially like the animations of the stages of labor. If the images were free, I would use 5-10 them for study or for educational PowerPoint presentations for school."

"I am an honor student, and have presented several of my papers on my school campus, in the community, and also at national conventions. In our program we are responsible for presenting several oral presentations in class and two major presentations for the campus community. If the Nucleus images were free, I would use approximately 10 of them to help my audience visualize a procedure, an illness or an injury. A picture is worth a thousand words, and in the health field, it is always better to have picture when you are lecturing. The quality of the images is better than some of the pictures in my text books. They really help to describe and explain what the procedure entails."

"I would use 10-50 per year for handouts, Powerpoint presentations and school assignments."

"If I had full access to the images on your web site, I would integrate your illustrations and animations into lectures given to medical students and residents. In particular, the animation of vaginal delivery on your website would be an excellent teaching tool, allowing students to visualize the birth process well."

"I am a senior at ODU's School of Nursing and will carry on for my Masters in Nursing. I have a slide show presentation due tomorrow so this would be a great addition to it. Aside from Nucleus, there are no educational sites that have quality images on the net which are easy to use, download, and present. Nursing students are constantly trying to find innovative ways to produce presentations at home to present their patients or subject material."

"My thesis is on Occupational Asthma and general occupational respiratory disease and the graphics from Nucleus medical images provide an excellent visual complement to the subject. If the images were free, I would use approximately 20 per year for personal use."

"The detail provided by these images and the way in which the images are clearly presented make them excellent for presentation purposes. These images also make it easy to break a potentially difficult subject down and make it more manageable. I would love to use about 50 of the images per year in poster presentations. Human anatomy/physiology often gets monotonous and boring, but when students have to undertake visual presentation projects and bring a particular topic alive it really stimulates the mind, makes the educational trip fun and more importantly we end up with a far greater depth of learning than we would have done just straight from the book. If we were asked to research more topics ourselves, with the help of your images we could display and present topics making them far more approachable and fun."

"I am a nursing student and am always in need of medical images suitable for public displays. If they were free, I would use between 20-30 images from the [SMART Imagebase] per year."

"We trawled the Internet for appropriate images and yours were probably the best we found, as a group, due to their incredibly high quality and clarity for our allocated topic of Hydrocephalus. We are a group of students doing a degree course in Diagnostic Radiography. We are in our 2nd year of study, approaching the end of 2nd year and then sitting our exams! in May 2005. For the Pathology module, we have been given the subject of Hydrocephalus and we have to produce a poster which will be on 2005."
