I was working for a medical school when I first learned CF. Aside from several 
small add ons (mainly for mailing information etc), back in 1998 my first CF 
app was converting a series of pathology labs to the web.  Previously the 
students were required to look at several hundreds of slides and identify the 
associated diseases or conditions. I scanned in all the slides and converted 
them to jpg's. The slides were presented randomly within each section and 
periodically they were quizzed about various identifiable features. The 
students had to get at least 85% correct to progress.
