Visible Body® Now Includes Over 2,400 Anatomical Models, and Improved 3D Detail and Textures
NEWTON, MA — (Business Wire - August 24, 2010) — Visible Body—the first Web-based 3D interactive model of the human body—announced today that it now includes an additional 700 anatomical structures, and finer renderings of major organs. Highlights of the new release include:
With over 2,400 anatomical models, Visible Body serves as a reference and visualization tool for educators, students, doctors, and others interested in human anatomy.
Users of Visible Body can, in real time, view any combination of anatomical structures from any angle by zooming in, rotating, and making structures transparent or invisible. Visible Body has dynamic search capability, easy-to-use 3D controls, and is compatible with most web browsers.
“This release expands the number of anatomical models and the platform's functionality” said Andrew Bowditch, President and CEO of Visible Body. “The real-time 3D experience provides an opportunity to explore relative anatomy that is usually available only through an anatomy dissection lab. Visible Body goes beyond the lab experience because it gives the student the ability to view any combination of structures from all angles.”
Visible Body is sold through website subscriptions at www.visiblebody.com. The updated website showcases new features and streamlines the subscription process. A one-minute overview video is available on the website at http://www.visiblebody.com/Tour_Movies. A free demonstration version is available at http://www.visiblebody.com/Tour_Demos. The demonstration version offers all the functionality of the software and access to the models of the head and neck.
“We’re delighted to be offering this new release just in time for the start of the fall semester,” Bowditch added. “Students and professors keep telling us that Visible Body is an invaluable anatomy learning tool. With the addition of hundreds of new structures and truer soft tissue textures, we look forward to reaching an even broader audience.”
Visible Body has also partnered with a number of pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies to develop customized modules that provide surgical training and showcase new products to medical professionals and their patients.
