Oooh this pairs nicely with yesterday's post (July 7, 2005) on Medical Images on the Internet. Thanks Clare Leibfarth for directing my attention to this.

July 8, 2005 / 54(26);660

"The online CDC Public Health Image Library (PHIL) has been updated and enhanced with a new design and new functions; PHIL also has a new link to its website. PHIL contains approximately 7,000 free public health-related images, including high-resolution photographs, illustrations, and videos devoted to topics ranging from science, to public health, to CDC.
Most photos and illustrations are not copyrighted, although users should attribute CDC as the source where appropriate. Images are accessible by persons using both Windows and Macintosh operating systems. PHIL photos and illustrations are routinely used by health professionals, news media, and the general public to enhance news reports, health promotion brochures, manuscripts, classroom instruction, and presentations."

PHIL is available at http://phil.cdc.gov/phil/home.asp.
