Abstract: To explore the application of virtual slice combined with immunohistochemistry and case analysis in the teaching of undergraduate pathology experiments, and improve the quality of pathology teaching. In the teaching of pathology experiments, we designed this method and implemented in 44 students of five-year program of clinical medicine in Guilin Medical University from March to July 2022. The teaching effect was evaluated by examination and questionnaires. The results showed that the average score of the case study after using this method (47.33±16.39) was improved as compared with that of using the traditional method (20.89±12.45) (P=0.001). The survey found that 97.7%(43/44)of the students believed that the teaching method was helpful for improving the clinical thinking ability, promoting the mastery of pathological knowledge, and deepening the understanding of pathological examination and diagnosis process. The application of this teaching method is beneficial to improve the teaching effect in the teaching of pathology experiments.
