In order to evaluate the microvascular anatomy and the interconnections, 101 fixed brains from human cadavers with a mean age of 41.3 years were subjected to objective scrutiny. Symmetry was visualized with an unaided eye and measurements made under microscopic magnification technique using a micrometer. Classic symmetry was observed in only 19 of the specimens, whereas the rest of the 82...

Background: Understanding some part of the human body such as serous membrane, peritoneal cavity, lesser sac and proper mesentery is difficult for medical students. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of animal dissection on improving medical student knowledge and view related viscera and serous membrane anatomy. Methods: In YUMS in 2011, sixty eight medical students were ra...

BACKGROUND The ostrich Struthio camelus reaches the highest speeds of any extant biped, and has been an extraordinary subject for studies of soft-tissue anatomy and dynamics of locomotion. An elongate tarsometatarsus in adult ostriches contributes to their speed. The internal osteology of the tarsometatarsus, and its mechanical response to forces of running, are potentially revealing about ostr...

Introduction: Existing phantoms have been constructed based on Caucasian, non-Caucasian and race-specific datasets. According to previous studies made efforts to present Korean- specific phantoms and Chinese female phantom based on CVH dataset due to compare the resulting internal dosimetry with the Caucasian based data showed possible racial difference in human anatomy between ...

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to accurately establish the variability in anatomy radius and ulna context design an intramedullary nail for both bones METHODS: Forearm computed tomography scans were used measure specific internal external adult patients. Patients with fractures or dislocations involving either and/or excluded RESULTS: A total 97 scans, comprising 84% male 16% fe...

Aims Different techniques are used for the study of the external anatomy of marine organisms (in vivo observation under binocular stereo microscope, optical microscopy, SEM). In the case of SEM, samples must undergo a previous treatment before being scanned. The study of the internal anatomy of these animals is carried out through techniques of dissection or classical histology, which are compl...
