I was asked this morning about A&P information online, particularly for those whose Marieb CD won't work - so here's what I have come up with:
Get Body Smart
A basic set of tutorials that you need Flash for, but there's enough to keep you busy for a while and some links to good histology sites if you want to go deeper into cells.
Human Anatomy Online
Choose a system, hover over an element with your mouse or choose from a list in a sidebar to get a definition. There is even a section displaying fractures. Again, there are many hours of fun here!
The internet Public Library - Anatomy and Physiology
Links to many online resources. Well worth exploring for further information.
The Visible Human Project
Overview
"The Visible Human Project® is an outgrowth of the NLM's 1986 Long-Range Plan. It is the creation of complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the normal male and female human bodies. Acquisition of transverse CT, MR and cryosection images of representative male and female cadavers has been completed. The male was sectioned at one millimeter intervals, the female at one-third of a millimeter intervals.The long-term goal of the Visible Human Project® is to produce a system of knowledge structures that will transparently link visual knowledge forms to symbolic knowledge formats such as the names of body parts."
A site to be aware of, but with very big files, even in the samples.================
If you have found any other good sites, please let me know and I will add to the list.
