RELEASE NOTE:

There was a small error in the quiz with version 1.0 - this bug has been fixed in this version.

OVERVIEW:

This app is a useful reference tool that allows the user to zoom in and identify the individual elements of the digestive system. This version does not include the mouth. It has been designed to accommodate students of all levels of anatomical medical knowledge.

FEATURES:

• No internet connection required.
• Ability to zoom in and identify any digestive organ.
• Ability to rotate the digestive organs for anterior, lateral, posterior and medial views, inferior and superior views are available where appropriate.
• Ability to test yourself with a fun Quiz function.

HOW TO USE:

The user is presented with a high-quality 3D model/image of the full digestive system. The user can zoom in to any area - by taping on a region - taping again will zoom in further - eventually the user will have zoomed into a digestive organ. The user can then identify the different parts by pressing on the flagged areas. There is also a super Magnification Mode that greatly magnifies the digestive organ, 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 a label 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 selected.

VIEWS:

Throughout the app - even while zooming in - the user can use the Views option to obtain a different perspective. The views available are anterior, lateral, posterior, medial and even inferior and superior where appropriate. The user can also turn the 3D image by dragging their fingers across, up or down the screen.

QUIZ:

This is a handy and fun testing tool - 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 digestive system or of a digestive organ. If after three attempts the user is unable to identify the label then he/she can ask the app to show them.
