Interactive lab

Four core activities

Every activity uses real unit content and keeps your progress in both study modes. Each also appears inside the topic where it helps most.

Point to identify

A vertebra is named by its number, labels hidden: find a fixed point, count, and tap it on the specimen.

In context: 2 Side by side, and practice →

Point to the vertebra

0 of 25

All 24 vertebrae and the sacrum, asked by number. The prompt names one structure and states the starting view. Labels are hidden. Tap the structure on the specimen; you may rotate and zoom first. You get the recognition cue after a miss and can try again.

Point to the landmark

0 of 4

Only the surface points that were computed on this model and checked on a marked picture are asked. The prompt names one structure and states the starting view. Labels are hidden. Tap the structure on the specimen; you may rotate and zoom first. You get the recognition cue after a miss and can try again.
