3D Anatomical Files

3D models are grouped by anatomical region: Head, Torso,  Extremities,  Spine, and Other(Animal).

Every file has been reconstructed from CT, MR scan data sets and/or microscopic image data.  All files are available as high resolution STL rapid prototyping files. File size determines whether file can be purchased electronically or shipped on CD. 

head      Head

The head contains a large number of anatomical structures in a relatively small region.The major bony structure, the skull, encloses the brain. The neck is generally described as the region between the base of the skull and the bony thoracic cage. This region contains the uppermost seven vertebrae located between  the base of the skull and the thoracic vertebrae. 

  chest    Torso 

The chest is the region of the body between the neck and the abdomen.  The upper boundary of the chest is formed by first thoracic vertebra, the first ribs and the upper margin of the manubrium. The chest extends to the level of the thoracic outlet, marked by the diaphragm. The  abdominal region can be found between the chest and the pelvis.  The abdomen is generally considered to be bounded at the upper end by the diaphragm. The  pelvic region is the irregularly-shaped region located between the hip bones, the sacrum and the coccyx.

This category includes the upper and lower limbs (commonly called the arms and legs) and joints.  A joint is the location at which two or more bones make contact. They  allow movement and provide mechanical support. Joints include the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle. 

spine  Spine

The human spine  is a column of 33 vertebrae, the sacrum, intervertebral discs, and the coccyx.  Vertebra are  separated by spinal discs. The spine houses the spinal cord in its spinal canal.

This classification contains 3D reconstructions that are cellular or derived from animal scans.
