Details

Detailing human anatomy in a way no chart or torso can duplicate, the Thin Man is a near life-size full-color rendition of the human body that, by means of a sequence of transparent Mylar overlays, allows the peeling away of layer after layer of tissue, progressing ever more deeply into the body. This provides extremely valuable insight into the three-dimensional spatial relationships of principal structures, major vessels, and organ systems. Displayed on the back of the chart is a full-figure view of the skeletal and nervous systems.
Each level of the sequential dissection highlights the following features:
First layer: Musculature of head, neck, thorax, and abdomen, with superficial muscles on the right side of the figure; deeper muscles and ribs on the left. (30) structures keyed and labeled.
Second layer: Brain, thyroid and salivary glands, eye, tongue, teeth, heart and major vessels, lungs, stomach, liver, and intestines. (44) structures keyed and labeled.
Third layer: Sinuses, nasal septum, tongue, trachea, heart chambers and vessels, pancreas, spleen, large intestine. (58) structures keyed and labeled.
Fourth layer: Esophagus, pleura, aorta, inferior vena cava, intercostal vessels and nerves, autonomic nerve trunk, kidneys, and adrenal glands. (27) structures keyed and labeled.
Fifth layer: (full figure): Brain, pharynx, vertebral column, rib cage, muscles of upper and lower extremities, pelvic organs, and muscles. (77) structures keyed and labeled.
In all, well over 200 anatomical features are named, indexed, and keyed. Standing 63 inches (160 cm) tall, the Thin Man is mounted on a warp-proof composition board, and is supported by a tubular steel frame on a tip-proof four-legged stand.
