Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID)
Overview Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is the most severe form of primary immunodeficiency, characterised by profound defects in both humoral (B-cell) and cellular (T-cell) immunity. It presents in infancy with recurrent, severe, and opportunistic infections, chronic diarrhoea, and failure to thrive. Without curative therapy, most infants die within the first year of life. Incidence is…

Liver Mass I Tumour
Author Armando Faigl MBBS Areej zeeshan Overview Liver tumors are divided into Benign and Malignant. Most liver tumors are benign, asymptomatic and found incidentally on unrelated imaging. Malignant liver tumours are associated with risk factors (Hep C, Cirrhosis) and present with a spectrum of clinical signs and symptoms such as right upper quadrant pain and…

Gout
Overview Gout is a common inflammatory arthritis that is increasing in prevalence. Gout (monosodium urate crystal deposition disease) is characterized biochemically by extracellular fluid urate saturation. Tends to occur earlier in life in men than women, and is rare in childhood. Prevalence is increasing. It is associated with many serious comorbidities such as hypertension, chronic kidney disease,…

Paget's Disease of the Breast
Overview Paget's disease of the breast is a rare cutaneous manifestation of an underlying breast malignancy, accounting for approximately 1% to 4% of all breast cancers. It is characterized by the intraepithelial infiltration of adenocarcinoma cells (known as Paget cells) into the epidermis of the nipple-areolar complex. Over 85% to 95% of patients with Paget's…

Urinary Incontinence
Overview Urinary incontinence is defined by the International Continence Society as the objective demonstration of involuntary leakage of urine. It is a common and distressing clinical condition that severely impacts physical health, psychological well-being, and overall quality of life. The condition is broadly caused by a disruption in the coordinated lower urinary tract mechanisms responsible…

Chronic Exertional Compartment Syndrome (Exercise-induced Compartment Syndrome)
Overview Chronic compartment syndrome (also known as chronic exertional compartment syndrome or exercise induced compartment syndrome) is an exertional condition in which repetitive activity causes transiently elevated pressure within a closed myofascial compartment, leading to ischemic pain, tightness, and sometimes neurologic symptoms that predictably begin with exercise and abate with rest. It most often affects…

Good places to begin
Explanations learners return to.
Immunology – Innate Immunity (Diapedesis)
Understand the process of diapedesis, where immune cells exit blood vessels and migrate into surrounding tissues during inflammation. This educational video explains the key steps and molecular signals involved in leukocyte extravasation—essential for mastering innate immunity and immune response mechanisms.
Homeostasis – negative and positive feedback (thermoregulation and lactation)
Explore the concept of homeostasis and how the body maintains internal balance through negative and positive feedback mechanisms. This video illustrates key examples like thermoregulation and lactation to explain how these feedback loops function in real physiological processes.
Tennis elbow – lateral elbow tendinopathy (lateral epicondylitis)
Discover the causes and symptoms of tennis elbow, also known as lateral elbow tendinopathy or lateral epicondylitis, a condition involving overuse of the forearm extensor tendons. This video explains the underlying pathology, risk factors, diagnostic approach, and treatment options.
Our mission
Medical science is complex. Understanding it should feel possible.
Armando Hasudungan turns difficult medical science into clear visual explanations and connected learning experiences—so learners can see the whole picture, remember what matters and find a clearer way forward.
See it clearly
Turn abstract processes and invisible relationships into something the learner can picture.
Connect the pieces
Build understanding around how concepts fit together—not a pile of isolated facts.
Make it useful
Help learners move from explanation to recall, revision and the next logical step.
What clarity feels like
When the topic stops being a blur.
Learners do not come back because the subject became easy. They come back because the explanation gave them a picture they could work with.
“Armando's teaching style gives me the foundational knowledge.
Jessica Payne-Burnett
Medical Student, Charles Sturt University
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
Ayesha RaiStudent, Islamabad Medical and Dental College
“The drawings are amazing and super easy to remember.

Student, Neelain University
Coming soon: the AH study platform
The explanation is only the start.
The free library helps you find a clear explanation. The AH platform is being built to help you connect the resources, follow a clearer path and check what actually stuck.
- Watch in a focused, ad-free study environment.
- Move between connected videos, notes, diagrams and questions.
- Know what belongs next instead of rebuilding the study path yourself.
- Test your understanding while the topic is still fresh.
New and worth a look
Keep building the picture.
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)
Overview Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is an umbrella term encompassing a heterogeneous group of chronic inflammatory arthritides of unknown etiology presenting in children under 16 years of age. It represents the most common chronic pediatric rheumatic disease, with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 1,000 children. To meet the diagnostic criteria, arthritis must persist for…
