Accessible via the robust, easy-to-use OvidSP platform, Primal Pictures on OvidSP is the ultimate online anatomy reference— a comprehensive selection of dynamic, interactive modules featuring highly accurate, three-dimensional anatomy models. Modules focus on individual organs, regions of the body, or anatomical systems. Whether they’re in research, education, clinical practice, or rehabilitation, whether they’re generalists or specialists, users have seamless access to three-dimensional animations that illustrate accurate anatomical function, biomechanics, and movement, as well as treatments and surgical procedures. Depending on the specific module, they can:

• Peel away layers, rotate anatomical models 360 degrees, and reconstruct layers back to their original structure
• Demonstrate muscle function in 3D with interactive animations that illustrate the interaction of muscles, ligaments, and bones
• Take advantage of FLASH-based animation for faster navigation and sharper animation
• View models or structures from any angle they choose
• Get a built-in study guide as well as self-assessment quizzes to support and reinforce learning
• Illustrate clinical relevancy of anatomy with textual descriptions by leading specialists, as well as dissection and pathology slides
• Compare 3D images to MRI slices to aid in diagnosis and management of injuries with correlating scans
• Review clinical videos to gain a better understanding of procedures and treatments
• Export images, text, movies, and animations to use in presentations and patient handouts
• Easily link between images, animations, movie clips, slides, and accompanying textual descriptions
