Interactive Medical Acupuncture Anatomy

Description

This presentation uses anatomically precise, computer-generated reconstructed images of the human body for three-dimensional presentation of acupuncture points and channels. The CD component is fully interactive and allows the user to see through tissue layers, remove tissue layers, and rotate structures so that specific acupuncture points can be visualized in relation to their surrounding nerves, organs, and vessels. The accompanying book provides full color anatomic drawings and detailed information regarding the physiologic basis for acupuncture, which will be useful in conjunction with the CD.

Features

• Allows the acupuncture practitioner to produce safe and reliable results for the patient
• Provides clear and realistic images of the structures that lie beneath the skin at the location of the acupuncture points
• Supplies an excellent client education tool for those patients that require accurate explanation of the acupuncture procedure being performed
