Visible Human: Upper Thorax

The Featured Movie section showcases clips made through the Visible Human Data Base. A labeled still image will orient you to the starting point of the clip (Figure 1). If you have trouble identifying structures, go to the Visible Human Interactive Atlas using the linked image to view a live- interactive anatomy resource which can help in identifying structures.

This month we feature a rotation through the Visible Human Data of the upper thorax. Images are taken at approximately every 4 degrees of rotation. The image starts with the esophagus in the center, the aorta just to the right and azygous vein to the left. (See Figure 1.)

Have fun.
