Torso Uni-Sex

Open Back, 17 Parts

This sexless life size torso is composed of 17 parts. Accurate in all of its detailing, this model is appropriate for use in any human anatomy classroom. Anatomical structures of the major body systems are numbered and identified on the accompanying key, and many additional features are pointed out in the pictorial CD-ROM Guide.

The head is sectioned to expose one half of the brain. The neck is dissected through the ventral surface to show muscular, glandular, vascular and neural structures. The thorax and abdomen are completely open to afford an unrestricted view of internal organs and associated structures. The back is dissected, revealing the muscular layers, vertebral column, spinal cord and nerve branches. One thoracic vertebra is removable for detailed examination of its structure and association with the spinal cord.

Removable parts include the following:

• half of the brain, divided along the longitudinal fissure to show internal structures and blood vessels
• eye with optic nerve and extraocular muscles
• right and left lungs showing the bronchial tree and vasculature
• descending thoracic aorta and esophagus
• 2-part heart showing the atria, ventricles, cardiac valves and section through the ventricular heart wall
