Cai, Bohong; Rajendran, Kanagasuntheram; Bay, Boon Huat; Lee, Jieying; Yen, Ching-Chiuan – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
In recent decades, three-dimensional (3D) printing as an emerging technology, has been utilized for imparting human anatomy knowledge. However, most 3D printed models are rigid anatomical replicas that are unable to represent dynamic spatial relationships between different anatomical structures. In this study, the data obtained from a computed…
