As always, our team has been hard at work to bring our beloved anatomy community fresh content and updates to enhance everyone's anatomical knowledge and learning experience on Anatomy.app. So, explore our refreshed and brand-new 3D models, newly added articles, and updated quizzes.

Here's a detailed breakdown of what exactly is new:

 

1. 3D Anatomy: Completely Revised Skull Article

We've been working on a massive update to our 3D Skull article for a while now, and it's finally finished! Now featuring 53 detailed slides, our recently overhauled Skull article includes newly crafted, high-resolution 3D models of each skull bone.

All 3D models are brand new and more detailed than ever. Moreover, in our 3D Skull article, you can see each skull bone separately, providing a rare opportunity to study even the most delicate structures, such as the ethmoid bone, in remarkable detail. If you've been wanting to see bones like the inferior nasal concha or vomer up close and personal, now is the time.

Additionally, all textual descriptions have been thoroughly revised and significantly updated, and new slides have been added to our 3D Skull article. This comprehensive revision promises an even deeper insight into skull anatomy, perfect for both learners and seasoned professionals.

2. 3D Anatomy: New Sutures of the Skull Article

We've also just released a brand new 3D article dedicated to the sutures of the skull. This must-read article features 7 slides and not only covers the sutures but also reviews cranial landmarks, providing a detailed look at the points where the bones of the skull meet.

We've also added a 3D model of a 40-week-old fetal skull, highlighting the sites of the fontanelles. This addition makes the article even more engaging and the topic clearer.

3. Encyclopedia: New Article on the Malaris Muscle

Our Encyclopedia has expanded with a brand new, in-depth article on a lesser-known facial muscle - the malaris muscle. As one of the few resources covering this unique muscle, our article offers valuable insights for anyone interested in the nuances of facial anatomy.

The malaris muscle is a fine, superficial muscle that lies adjacent to the main bulk of the orbicularis oculi. It's an intriguing topic because this muscle is not present in every individual, making it a relatively rare and fascinating subject of study.

Although little research has been done on the malaris muscle, it appears to be significant in the anatomy of the midface and could play a role in preventing midface aging. The impact of the malaris on the aesthetics of the lower eyelid and cheek makes it essential for both clinical and surgical considerations.

Our Malaris muscle article covers everything from the structure and attachment sites of the muscle to its action, innervation and why the malaris muscle is crucial for facial aesthetics and anti-aging. We've also included a detailed illustration to help better visualize this unique muscle.
