Francesco Cappello, teacher of the Human Anatomy course of and therefore he made available some of skeletal specimens of the institute's collection. The idea was greeted with enthusiasm by Prof. The goal was to obtain virtual replicates of several specimen with such a quality of detail to be able to substitute the real ones. Although the University of Palermo owns a collection of anatomical specimens, the presence of a large number of students committed in the study of human anatomy made logistically difficult accessing the anatomical pieces included in the collection, and, furthermore, constantly handling those pieces accelerates their process of deterioration, resulting in expenses due to the restoration of the pieces or their replacement.įrom all this came the idea to create digital copies of the specimens of human anatomy collection of my university. However, to date, several medical schools (in Italy as elsewhere in the world) lack cadavers for research, as well as funding for the costs of storage and maintenance. Hence, medical students need to explore specimens in the real world. While 2D medical illustrations are rich in details, an extraordinary effort is required to figure out how these small structures can appear from a slightly different point of view. One of the most difficult aspects in the study of this discipline is learning human anatomy solely through books. One of the most fundamental disciplines in medical education is the Human Anatomy.
