Description

Description: This reference organ, Skin-male was created using data from the Visible Human Male, provided by the National Library of Medicine (Spitzer et al. 1996; Ackerman 1998). It was adjusted to add space for the triceps surae and the ankle bones for the eventual addition of the triceps surae muscles. In v2.3, the head was adjusted to be more like the original skin of the Visible Human Male, to make space for the mouth 3D object and landmarks.
