Right Hand Model with Rheumatoid Arthritis

An accurate replica, this human anatomy model from GPI Anatomicals shows the progression and effects of rheumatoid arthritis on a right hand. The model reveals the effects on ligaments, flexor and extensor tendons, muscle, cartilage, bones, synovial membrane, and joint spaces. A cross-section of the metacarpophalangeal joint capsules shows the progression of rheumatoid arthritis, including synovial swelling, erosion, and degeneration. Swan neck and boutonniere deformities are depicted on the second and third phalanges, respectively. This anatomy replica is perfect for display in a doctor's office or a healthcare facility for effective patient education.

The anatomy model comes with an information card and a display base. The model measures 6" x 3-2/5" x 7-4/5", while the base measures 6-1/2" x 5". The dimensions of the information card are 6-1/4" x 8-1/4". The flexor tendons on the model can be lifted for better viewing of the carpals.
