Delivering High-Tech Health Sciences Learning
This virtual dissection table displays the life-size three-dimensional image of a cadaver—in this case, the body of a 38-year-old man who donated his body for medical research. The detailed cadaver was recreated in vivid color based on actual body scans and loaded into the 6-foot-long touch-screen table.
Health science students at the School of Health Professions can now examine layers of the cadaver by swiping the screen, revealing organs, muscles, veins, and the skeleton. With a virtual scalpel, they can even make incisions. Learn more.
