The
INTERACTIVE KNEE presents the most complete and accurate 3D anatomical model
of its kind. The CD-ROM goes beyond any traditional textbook. Users can rotate
the 3D model of the knee on the computer screen, peel away layers, and label any
visible feature. This 3D model - derived from high resolution Magnetic Resonance
scans - is also used as a basis for scores of 3D animations showing key surgical
procedures, including ACL and PCL reconstruction. A broad selection of
radiological, biomechanical, and pathological material accompanies the 3D
presentation.
The
MRI section provides a method of viewing the 3D model of the knee in 3 planes
and correlating the anatomy with the equivalent MRI data. The model is linked to
radiology text written by David W. Stoller, MD.
Novel,
innovative, and unique, this CD-ROM is a versatile tool for teaching,
presentations, reference, and patient education. The program gives you the
facility to export images into your own programs for personal or teaching
purposes.
