This tutorial, currently composed of 145 different images, is solely designed as a supplement to Biology 545 (Human Parasitology) and Biology 546 (Human Parasitology Laboratory) taught each spring semester at Kansas State University. The majority of questions pose a hypothetical diagnostic scenario for you to solve. Even more photographs of parasites, including many that infect humans, can be found at the Animal/Human Parasitology images website so feel free to explore there as well. Over 650 different photos of parasites are currently associated with these two sites, so hopefully you'll stay amused.

The information presented here is designed solely for students, and should not be used as a basis for a definitive diagnosis. If you have any concerns about parasite infections please contact your local physician and veterinarian.

The images and questions may not always print out as desired; i.e. many of the questions or images may be cut off on the right margin most likely due ot different resolution settings and web browser compatibilities. Although you are free to print what you like, the pages were never designed for hard copy production. IIt might be preferrable to download the images and develop your own presentations.
