The axilla is a difficult and often
misunderstood area of anatomy seldomly depicted well in the current literature.
In addition to the complex anatomy of this region, clinically, the axilla plays
a pivotal part in surgery, particularly for oncologists and vascular surgeons.
The need for an easy to use, interactive 3D guide has never been greater.
Contents include 3D models of the
axilla, incorporating specialized views, illustrations, lymph flow animations
and a vast selection of narrated surgery videos.
The CD-ROM takes the user through all
parts of the surgery - from indications of axilliary surgery to the procedure
itself.
Benefits
- Review the complex anatomy of the region prior
to a procedure using detailed 3D anatomy models.
- Video clips and animations of the procedure are
ideal for teaching
- 25 surgery videos with voice over guide the user
through the procedure
- Includes self assessment questions for the
procedure

Reviews
“The work Primal has done in creating this resource is fantastic and we
support it totally,” comments Jonathan. “Industry involvement is essential to
the development of new education and training methods. Human anatomy is a
difficult, but key part of all medical education and all doctors, especially
surgeons, need a really in-depth knowledge of the subject. This software is a
fantastic resource for both teachers and students and is a valuable addition to
conventional teaching methods.”

“By being able to demonstrate the procedure through video footage and
three-dimensional images, we were able to bring it to life,” she explains. “The
additional advantage of being able to rotate images and peel back the layers
means that surgeons can not only gain a really accurate insight into how the
surgery works, but they can also ensure that their knowledge of this part of the
human anatomy is accurate and comprehensive.”
