Cross Sectional Anatomy: Male Pelvis (English)
In this set of cross sections we see the bones, muscles, organs, vessels and nerves of the male pelvis.
Cross Sectional Anatomy: Lower extremity (English)
In this chapter you will learn how to identify the structures of the lower extremity in the cross-sectional plane.
Anatomy: Heart (English)
The heart is responsible for pumping blood all over your body. It is a vital organ that has a complex structure made of cardiac tissue and embedded vessels.
Anatomy: Head (English)
The head is comprised of many structures including the eyes, ears, nose and mouth, which aid in various sensory functions, such as sight, hearing and taste.

Anatomy: Dorsal trunk (English)
The dorsal trunk is a group structures, including bones and muscles, which define the back. Those structures comprise the dorsal walls of the abdomen and thorax.

The twelve cranial nerves emerge from the brain and the brainstem. Via the cranial nerves, information is exchanged between the brain and areas of the body.
Anatomy: Wrist and hand (English)
The wrist is an area connecting the forearm to the hand and is mainly defined by the carpal bones. Let's look at the structures found in the wrist and hand.

Anatomy: Ureter (English)
The ureters are tubes made of smooth muscle fibers that take urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder..
Cross Sectional Anatomy: Upper extremity (English)
In this chapter we see the bones, the muscles and the vessels of the upper extremity in the cross-sectional plane.
Anatomy: Terminology (English)
