Knowledge base
Anatomy and musculoskeletal knowledge base
Everything that sits behind a click in the 3D atlas is here as text as well, to read, search and share. Per muscle the origin, insertion, function and innervation; per joint the movements with their normal values, the capsular pattern and the arthrokinematics; per test the procedure and what it is worth.
724 structures, 26 joints, 58 clinical tests, 67 palpation landmarks, 42 conditions and 62 terms, each pointing back to the place in the model where you can select it.
- By body regionFrom shoulder to foot: the joints, tests, palpation landmarks and conditions of one region gathered together.
- StructuresMuscles, bones, ligaments, vessels, nerves and organs, each with origin, insertion, function, innervation, palpation and a clinical note.
- JointsJoint type, movements with plane, axis and normal range, close-packed and resting position, capsular pattern and arthrokinematics.
- Clinical testsWhat you are examining, how to perform the test, when it is positive and what it is diagnostically worth.
- Palpation landmarksThe bony landmarks you look for under your fingers, with the route towards them and what you use them for in your examination.
- ConditionsMechanism, recognition, course and management, with the structures, joints and tests that belong to them.
- TerminologyThe basic language: planes, axes, directions, movements and the terms from arthrology.
