The Foot Bone's Connected To The...?
Posted by Brad Adrian in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:57 PM
Have you ever wondered what a metatarsus looks like? Or how to diagnose Salter-Harris fractures? Or maybe have a tough anatomy test to study for? If so, Medical Wizards Corporation has a neat application aptly called Bones.
"Bones includes 48 drawings of all the bones in the human body. All are labeled with the various process and important anatomic markings. Additional items, such as facial fractures, hip fractures and Salter-Harris fractures are addressed. A substantial orthopedic glossary of terms is included for those of us that can't seem to remember what a Bennett's fracture or Comminuted fracture is. This is a great reference for Medical students, Residents, Attending physicians, Nurses and Physician's assistants."
This is a slick-looking piece of software, and one that I wish had been available back during my school days. And for once, here's an application for medical workers that doesn't cost an "arm or a leg" [sorry]. You can download a free demo or buy the full version for only $19.99. It may be worth that price just to help you get that "A+" on your next anatomy exam.
