3D models of human anatomy. (Simultaneous user limit: 10.)
The representation of the body in Primal's range of software is unique because of its accuracy and detail.

It is derived from genuine medical scan data that has been interpreted by a team of Primal anatomists and then translated into three-dimensional images by an expert team of graphics specialists. The anatomy visuals are accompanied by three-dimensional animations that demonstrate function, biomechanics and surgical procedures.

To supplement the core three-dimensional anatomy data are clinical videos and text written by some of the world's leading medical specialists.
