FEATURES
Life-Size Right Human Shoulder Joint Anatomy Model
The Axis Scientific Life-Size Muscled Shoulder Joint Model features 23 anatomical parts, including bones, muscles, processes, and axillary spaces. This model provides a complete and detailed representation of the superficial muscles at the shoulder joint. Some sections of the clavicle and humerus not covered by muscle are visible on the model. The remaining shoulder bone, the scapula, is covered completely by the muscles displayed on the anatomy model.
Impingement of the nerve in the shoulder is a cause of common shoulder pain. This issue can be studied on the model where the major and minor superficial muscles can help visualize where this pinching may occur.
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Shoulder Muscles
The Axis Scientific muscled shoulder joint is a static and rigid representation of the superficial musculature in the shoulder. The muscles in the shoulder can be divided into two groups: extrinsic muscles and intrinsic muscles. These two muscle groups are associated with movements of the limb. The extrinsic superficial muscles come from the torso and attach to the scapula, clavicle, and humerus. There are only two extrinsic superficial muscles in the shoulder, with the rest being deep musculature. These muscles are the trapezius and latissimus dorsi, both prominently displayed on the model.
Intrinsic superficial muscles of the shoulder come from the bony anatomy of the shoulders - the scapula and the clavicle, with an attachment to the humerus. These intrinsic superficial muscles include the deltoid, teres major, supraspinatus (rotator cuff muscle), infraspinatus (rotator cuff muscle), subscapularis (rotator cuff muscle), and teres minor (rotator cuff muscle). The muscled shoulder joint model features a detailed representation of these muscles for study.
Base Stand
Our Life-Size Muscled Shoulder Joint Model comes with a sturdy base stand that attaches to the model. This base stand is a great for an uninterrupted study and display of the model.
Full-Color Detailed Study Guide Booklet & User Guide
The Axis Scientific Life-Size Muscled Shoulder Joint Model comes with a detailed full-color study guide booklet that identifies the 23 anatomical parts featured on the model.
