From the Ted Talk by Jack Choi: On the virtual dissection table


Unscramble the Blue Letters


So instead of just butchering the body, I'd like to do more clinically meaningful dotnisescis. What I'm going to do is I'm going to peel off all the skin, muscles and bones, just to see a few internal onrags. Right here. Let's say I'm going to cut the lvier right here. OK. Let's say I'm interested in looking at the heart. I'm going to do some surgery here. I'm going to cut some veins, arteries. Oops! ...

You don't want to hear "oops" in real surgery. (Laughter) But fortunately, our digital man has "undo." (Laughter) Okay.

All right then. Let me zoom in. I'm going to make a cut right there. And then you can see the inside of the heart. You can see the atrium and the ventricles, how blood flows to our arteries and vneis. Just like this, sdetunts can isolate anybody and dissect any way you want to. It doesn't have to be always dissection. Since it's digital, we can do reverse dsticesoin. So let me show you, I'm going to start with the steklael structure, and I can add a few internal organs. Yep. Maybe I can add quickly this way. And I can build mcuesls gradually, just like that. We can see tndoens and muscles. Wish I could build my muscle this fast. (Laughter) And this is another way to learn anatomy.
