eSkeletons Project http://www.eskeletons.org/ |
| From
the Internet Scout Report: "This project from
the University of Texas at Austin is an interactive
approach to learning anatomy. Users choose either to
view human, baboon, or gorilla skeletons to learn about
individual bones, or compare the anatomy between
species. Bones can be rotated and viewed from different
angles, along with various "'overlays' depicting
major muscle origins and insertions as well as
articulations and morphological features."
Additional three-dimensional features can be viewed with
Quicktime and VRML plug-ins that can be downloaded from
the site. The glossary of anatomical terms is quite
helpful, incorporating images along with textual
definitions. [AL]" |

Gross Physiology of the Cardiovascular System
http://cardiovascular.cx/ |
| From
the Internet Scout Report: "This site is the
online text of Dr. Robert M. Anderson's book The Gross
Physiology of the Cardiovascular System. Even though
biomedical knowledge is continually advancing and
becoming more specific, Anderson feels that it is
important to "have a clear understanding of the
gross mechanical function of the cardiovascular system
as a whole." This resource is provided as a model
to do just that. The text is well organized and easy to
navigate; additionally, a video that provides a summary
of the online text can be viewed online. [AL]" |

http://www.accessexcellence.org/RC/VL/xrays/ |

From the Internet Scout Report: "Access
Excellence at the National Health Museum provides this
Web site as an educational tool for learning about the
human body. X-ray images and bone photos of the human
skeleton are organized into eight body area categories,
viewable with or without explanatory labels. Both normal
bones and those having fractures or other medical
conditions are included, along with links to
explanations of some of the conditions. The site may be
useful to those studying medicine, anatomy, or anyone
who is interested in images of the human body. [AL]" |

Human Server http://visiblehuman.epfl.ch/ |
| From
the Internet Scout Report: "This Web site
from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology allows
users to view three dimensional models of human anatomy.
A free registration allows users to log on and fully
access the site, but there are some sample
demonstrations available without registration. When
visiting the site, you can view, rotate, and extract
cross sections from the anatomical models, or build your
own anatomic model by choosing the structures of
interest. The site works best with Internet Explorer 5
and the latest version of Microsoft Java VM. The site
provides how-to files that are extremely helpful for new
users. This is certainly a site for those studying human
anatomy, but it is a cool site that may also appeal to
others. [AL]" |
