All four available volumes of this great systemic view of human anatomy dissection and study at a savings!
Integral Anatomy Dissection Volumes 1, 2, & 3
Narrated Systemic Dissection
of the Human Body from Gil Hedley!
DVD's Volume 1
covers the Skin and Superficial Fascia
In what may be the most visually surprising and important sequences in the
series, skin and superficial fascia are demonstrated as whole body layers in
their superficial and deep projections. The layers are dissected on camera and
presented in detail in their variations and in their implications for overall
health. The visuals include a stunning off-body example from the male, and the
entire superficial fascia of the female form is demonstrated off body as
a singular layer and discussed in its wide ranging importance.
This disk represents an important contribution to
our understanding of these two most external layers of the human form. Only
through a thorough familiarity with and understanding of these two layers can
that which lay beneath them be truly comprehended. Anyone who wants to access
the layers of deep fascia, muscle, viscera and bone must feel through
these outer layers knowingly. Vol. 1 conveys that knowledge to the viewer. The
material found on this disk is unique, cannot be found in books, and represents
a leap beyond established regional perspectives
Program running time: 1 hour, 40 min
Volume 2
covers the whole body continuities of
deep fascia and muscle are demonstrated in detail and dissected on camera to
demonstrate their relationships to underlying and overlying structures.
Following through with themes initiated in the first volume, visual
presentations and discussions of the practical implications for professional
practice of the layer by layer demonstration of human form are carried deeper
into the body. The first volume creates the material and visual context for
understanding the layers explored in this volume.
A comprehensive understanding of these deeper layers requires
a thorough understanding of the more superficial ones. All are strongly
encouraged to engage the material in Vol. 1 to achieve a full appreciation and
understanding of Vol. 2. The material found on these disks is unique, cannot be
found in books, and represents a leap beyond established regional perspectives.
Program running time: 1hr 50 min
Volume 3
covers the fascial and membranous layers which surround the cranial
and visceral spaces. You've heard of the dura, arachnoid, pia, endothoracic
fascia, pleura, transversalis fascia, peritoneum, and pericardium. These layers
are literally impossible to understand by looking at books or by hearing about
them in classes, and are rarely demonstrated clearly even in the laboratory.
Sequenced with the first two volumes, this stunning presentation plainly
demonstrates these bag-like layers which define the spaces of our organs and
central nervous tissues. The peritoneum is demonstrated in its entirety as
perhaps never before in a spectacular on-camera dissection, the dura is revealed
with its sinuses, healthy and pathological adhesions are explored and explained.
Central to this presentation is the respiratory diaphragm, which cannot be
understood apart from the serous membranes upon which it acts. Here it is
demonstrated with absolute clarity in its continuity with the fascial and
membranous layers of the viscera. These layers are integral structures of the
human form, surrounding the major organs of the body. Their functions are
plainly influenced directly by our touch and movement, and now a clear and
simple vision of them can be added to your knowledge foundations.<br>
Program running time: 1hr 53min
Volume 4: covers the viscera of the abdominal, pelvic
and thoracic spaces, and the fascia through which they relate. This volume also
introduces into the mix of examples an unembalmed female form. The story of the
layers of the form is continued where Vol. 3 left off, once the layers of the
new form have been reflected in turn. The various organs are carefully explored
at a pace coherent with the viscera themselves. The examples of the embalmed
male and female form, whose viscera present clearly, create an ideal contrast to
the unembalmed female form in which many adhesions are identified. The viewer is
thus enabled to see both normal relationships and movements, as well as the
sequelae to pathologies and surgeries.
A comprehensive understanding of the viscera and their
fascial relationships requires a thorough understanding of the layers which
surround them and form their context. All are strongly encouraged to engage the
material in the first three volumes to achieve a full appreciation and
understanding of Vol. 4. The material found on these disks is unique, cannot be
found in books, and represents a leap beyond established regional perspectives.
running time: @1 hour, 53 min, DVD.
