Medicine databases on trial

The Health Sciences Library is currently trialing 2 databases; Primal Pictures and Images MD.

Images MD is an online encyclopedia of medical images. It contains
circa 50,000 medical images along with accompanying text. Images MD
can be searched by keyword or browsed by collection or speciality.

Primal Pictures is a digital resource in anatomy. It provides a complete 3D model of human anatomy which is based on real medical scans and dissection data. The data has been reconstructed using sophisticated computer graphics and imaging techniques.
