An innovative 3D solution released this week by Elsevier marks a major milestone in education equality with the representation of the full female anatomy in the study of the human body. At a time when females more likely to be misdiagnosed for health conditions compared to male counterparts, the solution signifies a major milestone in equal representation by preparing medical, nursing, and allied health students with the most complete understanding of the female anatomy.

Historically, the full female anatomy has been underrepresented in the study of the human body. Now, educators can choose the sex with which they’d like to teach their full curriculum, in addition to having the option of switching between male and female anatomies to teach comparative differences in sex-specific regions of the body. The Complete Anatomy female model provides educators with a more comprehensive teaching approach that allows them to switch seamlessly between teaching both female and male anatomy.

Informed by four years of expert research and development, anthropological data from specialist texts, academic papers and customer feedback, the addition of the female model to Complete Anatomy’s 3D platform provides an unprecedented opportunity to study the female form in more detail than before. Complete Anatomy’s female model will benefit all courses that teach anatomy and is an essential virtual tool for learners studying outside the lab who need a deeper understanding of both male and female anatomies.

Elizabeth Munn, managing director, global medical education at Elsevier, said: “As an advocate for content that is diverse and inclusive, we are thrilled to offer this ground-breaking full female model to allow educators to teach anatomy in an equal and comprehensive way. Complete Anatomy is continuing Elsevier’s rich heritage of innovation in education by delivering on our vision of providing transformative medical education solutions. We are proud to take this step forward in addressing gender bias and believe Complete Anatomy’s female model will have a tremendous impact on the educational experience of medical students worldwide as well as on the outcomes of patients they treat in the future.”

Elsevier has been consistently improving its digital learning applications over recent years. This latest launch comes from 3D4 Medical the creator of the Complete Anatomy app.
