Heart Dissection Video
Dr. Michael Fishbein of the David Geffen Medical School of UCLA and former president of the SCVP has graciously made available his cutting video to properly dissect the heart. No more can a resident, fellow, or practicing pathologist claim they never had the proper instruction on cutting the heart. The videos are served from YouTube and each one has a link to the following chapter. These are outstanding educational videos.
