The Visible Body database allows you to view 3D models, with the ability to zoom, dissect, and rotate anatomical structures in remarkable detail. There are also practice quizzes to help you develop your knowledge on each system and structure within the body. This database is provided free of charge through the library. Watch the video below for an overview, or view any of the help articles below the Visible Body link for additional assistance.
