OVERVIEW:

This is a must have app for anyone studying anatomy. It has been designed for students from basic to advanced level of anatomical medical knowledge as well as medical professionals. It is far more interactive than flash cards with several amazing features (see below) and has an interactive quiz section for testing your skeletal and ligament knowledge. It can be used as a powerful reference tool that allows the user to zoom in and identify an individual bone, part of a bone or ligament within the full skeleton.

FEATURES:

• Ability to zoom in and identify any region, bone, bone part or ligament.
• Ability to rotate the bone or region for anterior, lateral, posterior and medial views, inferior and superior views are available where appropriate. X-ray and skin views are also available. • Over 350 high-quality 3-Dimensional images of the bones.
• Full anatomical descriptions of all 1,200 labelled parts.
• All bone and ligament labels in both English and Latin.
• A dual index that can search in both English and Latin.
• Ability to test yourself with a fun Quiz function.
• No internet connection required.

HOW TO USE:

The user is presented with a high-quality 3D model/image of the full skeleton. The user can zoom in to any area - by tapping on a region - tapping again will zoom in further - eventually the user will have zoomed into a individual bone, bone region or ligament. The user can then identify the different parts by pressing on the flags. Each label is in English and in Latin and by pressing on the 'i' icon the user can access additional information on a label. There is also a super Magnification Mode that greatly magnifies a bone part allowing the user to press on flags that are close together!

INDEX:

The application can also be used as a visual reference tool by using the index: By simply selecting an English or Latin name from the index - the application will show the user where it is located - by zooming into the appropriate region and finding and labelling the item you requested.

VIEWS:

Throughout the app - even while zooming in - the user can get different views, including x-ray or skin views and of course the anatomical views: anterior, lateral, posterior, medial and even inferior and superior where appropriate.

QUIZ:

This is a handy and fun testing section - the user is asked which area they would like to be tested on - and then the application asks them to zoom in and identify parts of the skeleton. If after three attempts the user is unable to identify the bone part or ligament he/she can ask the app to show them.
