Anatomical model

An anatomical model is a three-dimensional representation of human or animal anatomy, used for medical and biological education.

[1] The model may show the anatomy partially dissected, or have removable parts allowing the student to remove and inspect the modelled body parts.

Some models may have changeable genital inserts and other interchangeable parts which permit a unisex model to represent an individual of either sex.

[citation needed] Although 3D computer models of anatomy now exist as an alternative, physical anatomical models still have advantages in providing insight into anatomy.
