Full Description
an@tomedia: A new approach to medical educationan@tomedia is a unique way to learn about the anatomy of the human body. It is a comprehensive, self-paced learning program that explores anatomy from four different perspectives:
Regions: includes surface and functional anatomy Systems: includes conceptual and clinical anatomy Dissection: includes practical procedures and post-mortem Imaging: includes sectional and endoscopic anatomy
These perspectives teach you how the body is constructed (from regions and systems) and how you can deconstruct the body (with dissection and imaging techniques).
Unlike any other anatomy multimedia program, an@tomedia combines an interactive photographic and illustrated atlas with detailed, serial dissections of real human bodies and coloured overlays. Most other available products are animated and lack detailed content, because they are designed for a specific learning task (eg. preparation for an exam). Most are also limited in their interactivity and educational value because they do not address multiple perspectives of learning anatomy.
an@tomedia is arranged in nine modules. The content for each module is distributed on a single CD-ROM, and can be used on both Macintosh and PC computers. These interactive CD modules provide additional depth and detail to complement the book, General Anatomy: Principles and Applications . Five modules are currently available:
General Anatomy Back Abdomen Thorax Pelvis
Four more modules, Upper Limb, Lower Limb, Neck, and Head are in development and will be released at regular intervals.
Features:
detailed serial dissections of real human bodies coloured overlays of individual structures multiple perspectives to explore anatomy and compare flexibility to choose your approach, rate, sequence and depth of learning interactive text, labels and clinical questions new concepts in anatomy and relevant clinical applications capacity to 'build' systems, 'map' regions, 'dissect' layers and 'trace' images a self learning resource with a solid educational basis has a simple and consistent navigation system
PLEASE NOTE: The CD works on normal PCs/MACs. Any external application/software installed to run the CDs can cause a problem in viewing the CD
