We are pleased to announce a new release of Interactive Functional Anatomy. As well as a new interface and programming that reflects current operating systems (such as Vista and Mac X.5+) we have also refreshed the 3D anatomy views and given it extra functionality.
A dynamic resource of 3D anatomy with an extensive series of 3D muscle function animations that gives a new perspective on functional anatomy.
The main focus of the content is normal muscle function. The core of the product is a collection of interactive 3D animations that you can move and manipulate with your mouse. The animated 3D models can be rotated and moved to show the function of agonist and antagonist muscles during common movements such as raising arms, bending, flexion of spine and neck etc.
It features an interactive 3D skeleton with bones, ligaments, muscles and vessels. Select from a menu of views that allow you to focus on a particular region such as upper body, add and remove anatomy from the model and rotate to view and label all visible structures.
This is great for learning anatomy of bones and muscles and their role in normal muscle function and common gross motor movements.
Contains over 70 muscle function animations. Animations can be played, rotated and all visible structures can be labeled (a new addition for the 2009 version).
Animations can also be exported from the software as short movie files.
