The Ultimate Human MediView is the world's first highly detailed real-time, interactive 3D anatomy viewer of the most complete and accurate set of 3D models of the human musculo-skeletal system. It is suitable for medical and educational related purposes and is the quintessential tool for any human anatomy education.
MediView allows the user to view, select, hide different layers of anatomy and gain information on any area of the musculo-skeletal system in a total realtime 3D environment.
With the addition of the Cross Section tool (Transverse, Coronal and Sagittal), MRI dissection type views are displayed to enhance anatomical, structures, relationships and promote better understanding of the human musculo-skeletal system anatomy. Muscle, ligament of bone structures can also be easily accessed from the MediView database through use of the intuative navigational system.
The model conforms to the ideal male caucasian form as best as current public and proprietary medical data sets can determine. The model set is perfectly matched with no interpenetrating components - even when there are multiple layers of joint sheaths! Relative surface accuracies are within 0.1mm in real world scale. It took over 15 man years of work to construct the model set - even with proprietary software tools written to facilitate the process.
Over half of the team making the model were medical and related anatomy experts - this ensures that the model set is as accurate as it can be with current medical science.
Anatomical and anthropometric data was collated from research papers, anatomical texts and MRI to define musculoskeletal geometry.
Soft tissue volume was produced by lofting longitudinally from the attachment curves and through a number of transverse construction curves derived from MRI data.
