3D web-based anatomy computer-aided learning tools

Abstract EN

The advancements in computer graphics and the establishment of the World Wide Web as an ubiquitous repository of information have facilitated the creation of computer-aided learning tools that have wide accessibility.

When such applications offer information about human anatomy, three-dimensional representations of such information are highly valuable to the learner in exploring the human organs in 3D and understanding the spatial relationships between them.

This paper presents two computer-aided learning tools that utilize 3D web technologies to assist students in understanding human anatomy and physiology.
