Methods and sources
Practise the structures on your course checklist.
- Choose your scope. Select mapped structures from one reference model. A pasted checklist matches exact source names; unresolved names need manual selection.
- Retrieve before you reveal. Identify the highlighted structure while names are hidden. Say the answer before choosing an option. Feedback names the source structure and its ontology reference.
- Return when reviews are due. FSRS schedules each structure from your answers and confidence. Due items appear first, followed by unseen structures.
- Test under a time limit. Study Plus spotter practice allows 60 seconds per question after the geometry loads, with feedback at the end.
Why these study methods?
A quasi-experimental anatomy study supports retrieval practice for retention. Outcomes vary with learners and implementation. This product has not been tested in a controlled learning-outcome study, and no improvement in exam scores is promised.
Scheduling uses the open-source FSRS implementation with its default parameters. These parameters are not fitted to your course. Correct multiple-choice answers can reflect recognition or guessing; progress is not a measure of clinical competence.
Which anatomy is included?
| Reference | Source and coverage |
|---|---|
| Male | BodyParts3D 4.0 reference geometry, with source-derived labels. Simplified source meshes are preserved as supplied to this app. |
| Female | Human Reference Atlas United Female 1.10, including registered reference components. Skeleton and muscle coverage are partial. |
BodyParts3D · Human Reference Atlas. Attribution, coordinate handling, known exceptions and licenses are available under Sources & accuracy in the atlas. The datasets are different references, not matched scans of two comparable individuals.
Question-bank rules
Practice uses distinct labels with an explicit ontology mapping. Unmapped or ambiguous duplicate labels and pregnancy reference meshes are excluded from the saved study bank. Existing source structures remain available in the atlas. Display system categories and colors are illustrative; they are not source tissue appearance.
How to use it responsibly
Check your course’s terminology and use faculty teaching, approved references and laboratory sessions alongside this tool. No clinician has signed off this app as a complete or clinically validated atlas. Report suspected anatomy or label errors from My study.
