We are pleased to announce a new release of Interactive Shoulder. As well as a new interface and programming that reflects current operating systems (such as Microsoft Vista and Mac OSX 10.5), we have also refreshed the 3D anatomy views and given it extra functionality.

View the shoulder in detailed 3D with this teaching, training and reference tool. A choice of 3D models include all areas of the shoulder joint and shoulder girdle. Peel away layers of anatomy from skin to bone and rotate the model at any stage to view and identify any anatomical structure.

All structures have accompanying text and links to additional images and video clips including labeled dissections, annotated illustrations and clinical slides.Detailed and labeled cross section anatomy can be viewed in 3 planes and compared with equivalent MRI in up to 22 slices.

In collaboration with Johns Hopkins University there are a remarkable series of bio-mechanical animations showing the relative bone positions during a number of typical joint motions.

Whats new for the 2009 release?

The changes between the present and the updated version are minimal. There is a new interface on all our new re-released titles, which is more intuitive and user-friendly, with added functionality and we have added new content.New views that have been added to Interactive Shoulder -2009 include:

• Shoulder joint - coronal section
