Surgical Anatomy of the Liver (iPhone) 1.0

The application serves as a valuable resource for trainees, medical students, instructors, and anyone seeking an efficient method to learn or teach liver anatomy.

Its portability makes it suitable for use in various settings, from the operating room to a comfortable home environment. The tool provides an interactive opportunity to mentally visualize the 3D anatomy of the liver, offering an experience that traditional illustrations or imaging studies cannot match.

Developed under the guidance of Dr. Shishir Maithel, a Surgical Oncologist at Emory, this application benefits from the expertise of a certified medical illustrator. The digital sculpting process ensures that the anatomical representations are both clear and accurate. The content draws from a comprehensive synthesis of radiographic, cadaveric, and surgical references, further enriched by extensive practical experience in liver surgery.
