Web-based portals are crucial in histology for several reasons. Firstly, they provide accessibility to a wide range of histological slides and educational resources from anywhere in the world. This democratizes education and research, making it possible for students and professionals alike to access materials that might otherwise be unavailable. Secondly, these portals enable collaboration among researchers, educators, and clinicians, facilitating the exchange of knowledge and best practices. Lastly, they offer interactive learning tools that can enhance the educational experience by allowing users to interact with digital slides and other resources in ways that are not possible with traditional methods.
