Integral Anatomy Gross Dissection Video on DVD - Volume 4: Viscera & Fasciae
Overview
Volume 4 of the Integral Anatomy series delves into the viscera of the abdominal, pelvic, and thoracic regions, as well as the fascia that connects and supports these structures. This volume introduces an unembalmed female form alongside the embalmed male and female forms, offering a unique comparison that highlights both normal anatomical relationships and the effects of pathologies and surgeries.
The viscera are carefully dissected and examined in detail, showing their natural movements and relationships. The contrast between the embalmed and unembalmed forms allows the viewer to clearly observe adhesions and the sequelae of previous medical conditions, providing a deeper understanding of the impact these conditions can have on the body’s structure and function.
This volume builds on the knowledge from Volumes 1 through 3, emphasizing the importance of understanding the fascia and the layers that surround the viscera. A comprehensive understanding of the viscera and their fascial relationships requires familiarity with the layers that encapsulate and support them. Therefore, viewers are encouraged to engage with the previous volumes for a full appreciation of the content in Volume 4.
