Piece Osteoporosis Model
Impressive didactic model
for comparing osteoporotic and normal thoracic vertebrae. Ideal for
medical studies and patient consultation. The 11th and 12th thoracic
vertebrae are shown. Reproductions of sequential osteoporotic
thoracic vertebrae with narrower intervertebral disc are located on the
left of the stand. The upper vertebra is divided in the middle. The
magnetically attached vertebral half can be removed easily to show the
cut surfaces. This allows clear visualization of the fractured upper
part of the vertebral body caused by sintering, i.e. collapse of the
bony substance in the course and as a result of osteoporosis.
Degenerative changes in the bone, manifested as osteophytes, are also
identifiable.
For comparison, reproductions of two corresponding healthy
vertebrae with intervertebral disc are provided on the right side. One
half of the upper vertebral body is magnetically attached and can be
removed. A detail illustration on the base depicts two 3D micro CT
images obtained from bone biopsies. These illustrate the
microacrchitecture of the osteoporotic bone, which has a lower bone
density compared to healthy bone.A95 |

Deluxe
Osteoporosis Model
This osteoporosis model
consists of 3 medially divided lumbar vertebrae
with intervertebral discs. For anatomical
comparison, the upper section shows healthy bone
structure, the middle section osteoporotic bone
structure and the lower section advanced
osteoporotic bone structure with flattened
plates, deformation and decreased bone mass. For
detailed anatomical study the vertebrae can be
removed from the stand. The osteoporosis model
is a great high quality anatomical teaching. |

Osteoarthritis Hip
Set
Set of 4 hip models, reduced size, illustrating: degenerative joint
disease (osteoarthritis) and fractures; erosion
to joint articular cartilage; progression of
degenerative joint disease; osteophytes (bone
spurs) at the articular surfaces. Each of
the four models is 3-1/2” x 5” x 4.” Comes
with base and education card. |

Osteoarthritis Vertebrate Set
Each model is comprised of two life-size Vertebrae. The first pair
shows one set with normal anatomy and one with a
\"bulging\" herniated disc. The second set of
Vertebrae shows one with bone and disc
degeneration, and the 4th with advanced
osteoporosis with marked bone compression and
bone spurs. Comes with base and education card. |
