Nucleus Medical Media, a US-based business that creates and licenses medical illustrations and animations, has launched a new version of Scientific and Medical ART Imagebase (SMART Imagebase), a subscription-based website available from EBSCO Publishing. In addition to medical illustrations and medical animations, SMART Imagebase also includes illustrated monographs and interactive projects.
SMART Imagebase is used in schools and colleges worldwide and lets users download more than 20,000 images and animations of anatomy, physiology, disease, conditions, surgery and trauma to use for educational, non-commercial purposes such as classroom projects, web-based course curricula and professional training. For the latest version of SMART Imagebase, Nucleus has added more than 2,000 new content items, along with additional features to help users find, download, share and edit content faster than ever.
SMART Imagebase enhancements include more than 20,000 medical illustrations; 400 medical animations; 250 monographs and interactives; 71 searchable categories; 14 different languages; larger image previews, user comments and collaborative linking; and dynamic image editing tools. Users will notice a new look to the interface and faster performance from the upgraded resource. Pop-down search menus, larger image previews, and a more user-friendly design along with enhancements designed to improve search and display speed is expected to make the resource even easier to use.
Nucleus has also made ‘under the hood’ upgrades that improve the overall performance over the original version. Additional upgrades include better navigation and search -expanded content categories and tag-based search terms. Additional languages, along with a faster search engine, will allow users to access SMART Imagebase content more efficiently. Users may also create collections of content to share with others, comment on content items, and create links to collections, images and third party content.
