  • Title: The benefits of 3D modelling and animation in medical teaching.
    Author: Vernon T, Peckham D.
    Journal: J Audiov Media Med; 2002 Dec; 25(4):142-8. PubMed ID: 12554292.
    Abstract:
    Three-dimensional models created using materials such as wax, bronze and ivory, have been used in the teaching of medicine for many centuries. Today, computer technology allows medical illustrators to create virtual three-dimensional medical models. This paper considers the benefits of using still and animated output from computer-generated models in the teaching of medicine, and examines how three-dimensional models are made.
