OSU Students use iPods for Medical School Study





The Ohio State University's medical school has joined the ranks of colleges replacing cumbersome textbooks with the Apple iPod touch this year.

OSU med officials say the iPod lets students study high-quality images of organs and body parts in the palm of their hand, on the fly. A welcomed change from the days of flipping through textbooks to find pictures and directions for surgical procedures.
