| Abstract: | Despite a shift to use digital resources to supplement traditional anatomy education, institutions often rely upon external sources of digital materials. Such three-dimensional (3D) animations rarely resemble the anatomical models or cadaveric specimens used in the students' laboratories. Photogrammetry is a technique that generates an interactive three-dimensional model from a series of photographs. This study developed a simple and inexpensive method for using photogrammetry to produce interactive models that can be used by the anatomy educator. Only cell phone cameras were used, and the authors had no previous experience with photogrammetry. Such photorealistic interactive models of cadaveric specimens or plastic anatomical models may allow learners to review and recall anatomical structures seen in the laboratory on any web-enabled device. |
