  • Title: Developing a virtual reality-multimedia system for anatomy training.
    Author: Hoffman HM, Murray M, Irwin AE, McCracken T.
    Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 1996; 29():204-10. PubMed ID: 10163751.
    Abstract:
    The University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine's Learning Resources Center is developing a prototype next-generation application for anatomy education which combines virtual reality and multimedia curricular resources. The anatomy lesson utilizes polygon-based 3-D models of the hepatobiliary system created by BioGraphics Inc. of Fort Collins, Colorado which were derived from the National Library of Medicine's Visible Human Project Dataset. This article describes the needs assessment, learning objectives, and preliminary design of the current prototype. The multivariate design, the development strategy for implementing functionalities, and the engineering of critical software interface components are also outlined.
