This article describes a subset of interactive medical education software that is representative of currently available products. Packages are now being produced with a variety of languages and "authoring" programs and have been distributed over CD-ROMs, floppy disks, and laser videodiscs. The developers and distributors include individuals, universities, pharmaceutical companies, publishers, and software companies. The target audiences are physicians, allied health workers, patients, and students. Software development is currently being encouraged by the recognition, on the part of several professional organizations, of the need to use computers in medical education.

In 1993, the National Library of Medicine (NLM), in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), developed a Compact Disc Interactive (CD-i) program: "Cervical Cancer: Screening For Life." This was NLM's first experience in developing for an all-digital interactive medium, containing motion video, graphic images, and text. In 1994, the original CD-i was expanded to include a telecommunications capability that allowed the user to obtain the NCI's most recent screening and treatment information related to cervical cancer.

It is widely known that US results strictly depends on operators and that each operator follows individual pathways. Therefore the authors have tried to develop high-interactivity tools, allowing the "customization" of learning to the user's demands. Progress linked to microprocessors' technology allowed a wide spread of cost-effective electronic processors with high graphic performances, capable of supporting sophisticated softwares which are useful to develop multimedial programs. Our experiment is aimed at integrating a multimedial management system for US studies, with the training activity of the medical staff US-expert. The system is structured on a hardware platform based on the Motorola microprocessor, class 68040, an application software developed by Apple. The environment for multimedial applications development uses the "Hypercard" interface of graphic presentation, by Apple. The software allows the realization of a multimedial environment of learning, where US images are associated with graphics, drawing and text references. The application allows a multimedial environment of learning for normal eidodiagnostic anatomy of the female reproductive system, where different courses can be followed autonomously. On the basis of a check performed on a group of students, although in a preliminary stage, the combination of conventional didactic material with either a paper or television support, with devices allowing the connection of texts, graphics and images in a dynamic way, proved to be very useful and to allow personal courses of learning, which can be always modified in an interactive way.
