what human anatomy software do you think would be best as a supplement to books like netter's during anatomy lab? i was looking at Primal Pictured 3d human anatomy and at ADAM interactive anatomy 4...any other suggestions?

I bought a formaldehyde resistant waterproof laptop and would like something to help better visualize cadaver structures during those long nights than just flat 2d drawings

thank for your help

UMich videos are free. Rohens isn't a software but it has cadaver photos and it is amazing. It really helped me.

Whoa, back up! DO NOT bring your laptop into the anatomy lab. I don't care how "formaldehyde resistant" it is, that's just a totally crazy idea. It is completely unnecessary, and I can promise you that you'll ruin it. Why would you look at a 3D rendering of a structure while you're in the lab when you can just go to a body and look at whatever you want without giving your computer a disgusting bath? Total insanity of this plan aside, I don't really see any need for such a program. If you want to see what stuff looks like from different angles, just pick up a copy of Rohen's atlas.

edit: UMich's videos are awesome too, as noted above.

This is hilarious. Hope you get your Honors. If anybody deserves it, it's gotta be that person that puts this much time into getting ready for their anatomy class that starts in 2 months

...and sacrifices a laptop for it.

You school will probably have ADAM loaded onto computers in the lab. You shouldn't need to bring your own.
On the off chance they don't have it that's what you want to buy, but I still wouldn't bring a laptop into lab. However resistant it is, it will still stink forever.

As for things to watch on your own, I strongly recommend the Acland videos if your school has a copy you can borrow. Really, though, netter flashcards + Rohen is more than enough.

ADAM Interactive Anatomy is awesome! I had it at my school. I love how you can peel back one layer at a time.

A bit pricey though if you're going to buy it for yourself.

This is hilarious.👍

formaldehyde resistant? waterproof? ....for anatomy????!!

I hope you also are a fan of safaris, because buying this item for this purpose is ridiculous.

oh, by the way.... i had netter's on my iPod touch, which i mainly looked at while dropping the deuce. The grant's dissector is pretty good, and i just used that in the lab.

Just use Netter and the cadavers. You don't need anything else.

Overkill, my friend. Overkill. Do you really want to pluck globules of abdominal fat off YOUR keyboard?

Just use Netter and the cadavers. You don't need anything else.

Lot of truth to this, OP. I did that in conjunction with Rohen's and a lot of repetition of our lab manual -- worked okay for me.

Never have used ADAM but I did use a pretty old copy of the sobotta cd atlas which I thought was very good (It uses the same plates as the Clemente Atlas). It had a great search feature and you could hide the labels and kind of quiz yourself. I got it from an upperclassman, but I'm sure you could find it somewhere.

As for bringing your computer into the lab... I remember one time walking into the lab and seeing a classmate of mine with his macbook covered with saran wrap and him working away. Made me chuckle.
