Helpful but not sufficient as an atlas replacement (for medical school)
I started using this as an MS1 in anatomy.
Pros:
easy to navigate, pin, fade and see exactly what you want to see
good for seeing 3d relationships that books wont give you
more detailed than zygotebody (the other 3d atlas I tried, although it is free), has definitions including origins, insertion, innervation
developers seem willing to add content, I hope this trend continues
Cons:
Not detailed enough- not enough structures are noted. For example, many of the important heart arteries are missing, few tendons, connective tissue labeled (pleura too), points on structures are rarely labeled (apex of heart, coracoid process of scapula etc.)
Runs a little hot on my laptop, probably better for a desktop
If this program implemented a system like Netters atlas, where you could have floating labels pointing to various elements of a structure you select, only then would it be suitable as a replacement for a text atlas. If such a system were implemented, I would gladly pay twice the cost I did for this app.
Bottom line: Not perfect and you will need an additional atlas for anatomy, but this is good for visualizing 3d relationships in a way that 2d images cant achieve.
