    Large, High Resolution Image Bank

    Full-color, high-resolution imagery has always been one of the hallmarks of Challenger programs. Every image is assigned to the appropriate standard-of-care topic, and most can be enlarged for detailed examination and observation. Where specific features of an image are salient for instruction, overlays point to items being illustrated.
