"The ability to be able to see into the body and bring the inner structure to life has a WOW factor that will appeal to anyone fascinated by the human body. As a teaching and learning aid for anatomy, it is second to none."
A detailed and interactive 3D anatomy resource aimed at both the acupuncture practitioner and student.
For the first time you can see the positions of 88 of the most commonly used acupuncture points in 3D with detailed anatomy of their needle passage, plus a further 324 named needle points that can be highlighted in their correct position.
All 3D models include all musculoskeletal and vascular anatomy with descriptive text. Anatomical alerts are provided for points where damage would be caused by incorrect direction or depth of insertion. Many 3D views are also available in cross section.
Also included are the most clinically important myofascial trigger points - and for the first time in any publication - their anatomical and clinical correspondence to acupuncture points are shown and discussed.
Further content allows you to view and compare the 14 main acupuncture meridians, with points, with 42 myofascial referred pain patterns of trigger points.

"Imagine you had X-ray eyes and before you needled an acupuncture point you could see right into the body and check the underlying anatomy.
Now imagine you had the power to visually strip away layers, rotating the body if necessary, so that you could see between and behind muscles and find where the veins, arteries and nerves run. How about your own personal little medical alert to tell you if you are in an area where incorrect direction or depth of needle insertion could do damage?
Well the next best thing to x-ray eyes has just come on the market, and be warned: it is seriously addictive. The Anatomy for Acupuncture DVD-ROM is a new product from Primal Pictures, best known for their 3D Human Anatomy software.
It took 13 years for the team there to fully develop the first complete and medically accurate, 3D computer-animated model of the human anatomy. And it shows. They have managed to combine truly outstanding artwork with advanced digital technology and the result is an award-winning product that has gained worldwide acclaim as an outstanding educational resource.
The ability to be able to see into the body and bring the inner structure to life has a WOW factor that will appeal to anyone fascinated by the human body. As a teaching and learning aid for anatomy, it is second to none.
Now they have launched a version for acupuncturists that has an extra dimension. There is a built-in point location chart and 88 of the points come with extra text. You get advice about the point position, the needle track, the target structure, extra notes where appropriate about depth and alternative angles for needling, and clear warnings about risks. The visuals that link to these points are stunning.
As with other products, you can view the whole of the neurovascular and musculoskeletal systems. You can rotate the body, strip away layers, view cross sections, and look at referred pain patterns. You can even do all of this with many of the acupuncture points shown with needles in place. In addition, the most clinically important myofascial trigger points are included and, for the first time in any publication, their anatomical and clinical correspondence to acupuncture points are shown and discussed."
