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.

"after-study" value by allowing easy access to the imagery and
other support media found in Q&A coursework. Our comprehensive
courses, not to mention our gold-standard integrated textbooks, come
packed with thousands of high-resolution clinical photographs,
radiographs, diagnostic illustrations and charts, videos, and much more.
Education in Mind: We also encourage our patrons to make use
of the images we supply for private and clinical educational use. We
