Ungulate Dissection Labs Preview/Review

It features equine, ruminant, camelid, & porcine anatomy content developed at the U of MN by Dr. V. S. Cox and his colleagues. For each of 20 labs: laboratory objectives, terminology, instructor commentary, and labeled cadaver images with captions are presented. The web site enables students to preview subject matter content prior to a Lab and susequently to review subject matter prior to exams. Students may toggle image labels on/off to self-assess their anatomical knowledge. The keyboard may be used to toggle labels and navigate among images.
