Axis Scientific Human Neck and Throat Anatomy Model with Muscles, Veins, Arteries, and Study Guide
The Axis Scientific Human Neck and Throat Model with Muscles, Veins, and Arteries provides a detailed study of the neck and throat musculature, complete with the nerves and vessels that transport blood through the neck. This model is anatomically accurate and offers a coronal view of the internal structures of the neck and throat to aid in the understanding of their physiology.
The Axis Scientific neck and throat anatomy model is mounted on a sturdy base for study, display, and easy transport of the model. Gain a deeper understanding of the muscles of the neck and throat, and how they function in supporting the weight of the head while acting as a channel for nerves and arteries to pass through.
FEATURES
Neck and Throat Anatomy Model
The Axis Scientific Human Neck and Throat Model with Muscles, Veins, and Arteries features a coronal view of the muscles and the collection of vessels in an anatomically correct position. Located between the skull and the thoracic cavity, the neck contains structures that are integral for the protection of the cervical vertebrae and the head. The muscles featured on this model are important for head movement, as well as assist in respiration. In addition to major arteries and veins, this neck and throat model also displays the nerves, glands, and other vessels that support the flow of blood through the chest and into different parts of the body.
The neck and throat model displays parts of both the anterior triangle and posterior triangle regions of the neck. The anterior and posterior triangles feature muscles, nerves, vasculature, and other structures located in their respective regions. Both the anterior and posterior triangles contain smaller sub triangles, including the carotid triangle which houses the common carotid artery. The triangles of the neck provide important classifications of the detailed and complicated structures in the neck. These classifications are significant in medical study and practice for providing a better understanding of parts, disorders, and procedures to perform.
Muscles of the Neck and Throat
Secondary mastication (chewing) muscles are featured in this neck and throat model, displaying correct anatomy and positioning in relation to the other muscles in the neck. The suprahyoid and infrahyoid presented on the model aid in swallowing, jaw and mouth movement, and speaking. Arterial supply for both infrahyoid muscle groups and suprahyoid muscle groups are also featured in the model.
The scalene muscles, another muscle group in the neck, are presented in the neck and throat anatomy model. The anterior, middle, and posterior scalenes provide passageways for the major nerves, arteries, and veins. The scalene muscle group’s relationship to the nerve and vessel networks in the neck create the interscalene block, an anesthetic technique for the shoulder and upper part of the limb. Scalene muscles are also classified as accessory respiration muscles that activate during respiratory distress.
Vessels of the Neck and Throat
The neck’s proximity to major organs and structure provides an important location for vessels to pass through. Veins, arteries, and lymphatics are represented in this model to provide a visual study of their positions and relationship with each other.
The neck and throat model features the internal jugular and the subclavian vein, two of the most common veins used for the insertion of a central line. The central line is useful for long-term administration of fluids and blood drawing. This model is beneficial for studying the structures that are involved in and surround the anatomical parts necessary for the catheter’s insertion.
Nerves of the Neck and Throat
The neck and throat model displays major nerves responsible for innervation of the neck, upper limbs, tongue, and respiration. The network of nerves represented on the model includes a combination of cranial nerves and spinal nerves: brachial plexus, phrenic nerve, vagus nerve, accessory nerve (CN XI), and the hypoglossal nerve (CN XII).

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Perfect for students, medical practitioners, professionals, and artists.
Students
Medical students can get premium knowledge of the anatomy of the human throat and neck through great anatomical detail featured on the model, making it a perfect tool to gain correct information on the structure and functions of the musculature and vessels in the neck area. This neck and throat model displays a coronal view of its internal anatomy to provide a thorough study of the structures and how they work in conjunction with each other.
Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists
Physical and occupational therapists who work with patient rehabilitation for motor skills affected by the muscles and nerves in the neck area can use this anatomy model to study the structures that need care and treatment.
Neurologists and Neurosurgeons
This neck and throat anatomy model features both sensory and motor nerves that affect the function and movement of upper limbs, respiration, and parts of the face. Neurologists and neurosurgeons can use the model to provide a visual study of the nerves and their role in basic human functions. The model is useful for patient demonstration to aid in their understanding of nerve damage and treatment options.
Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Specialists
Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Specialists can also find this model beneficial for patient demonstration. Difficulties in swallowing, breathing, and talking can be better explained by studying the structures of neck and throat featured on the anatomy model. The muscles, nerves, and vessels that work together to aid in respiration, swallowing, and speaking are presented in their correct anatomical locations in the model.
Artists and Anatomists
Produce high-quality anatomical art with an anatomically correct human neck and throat model. The realistic details of muscle striations and interlocking nerves and arteries are great tools for understanding the basics of human anatomy for artistic endeavors.
