• Demonstrates all of hand functionality and the external anatomical structures.
• Including flexible, artificial ligaments.
• Made of PVC plastic.
• Natural size.

A life-size hand joint with ligaments model serves educational, medical, and research purposes, providing a detailed representation of the hand joint anatomy along with ligaments. Here’s a brief overview of its uses:

1. Anatomy Education: Used for teaching anatomy, allowing students to study the structures and movements of the hand joint in detail, emphasizing ligaments.
2. Orthopedic Studies: Beneficial for orthopedic education, illustrating the anatomy and mechanics of the hand joint, with a focus on ligamentous structures.
3. Occupational Therapy Training: Relevant in occupational therapy education for understanding hand function, joint movements, and the role of ligaments in hand health.
4. Orthopedic Surgery Planning: Healthcare professionals may use this model for surgical planning and visualization of procedures related to the hand joint.
5. Physical Therapy Education: Useful in physical therapy education for understanding the hand joint’s range of motion, functions, and rehabilitation exercises, with an emphasis on ligaments.
6. Patient Education: Enables healthcare practitioners to visually explain hand conditions, injuries, and treatment options, emphasizing the involvement of ligaments.
7. Biomechanics Research: Used in biomechanics research to study the mechanics and movements of the hand joint, particularly the contribution of ligaments.
8. Orthopedic Clinics: Displayed in orthopedic clinics to help patients visualize and understand their hand conditions, particularly those related to ligament injuries.
