Atlas, Axis, and Occipital Bones Set
Atlas, Axis, and Occipital Bones Set (Product Code: SLE/A/59) is a life-size representation of the base of the skull, the occipital plate, with the first two cervical vertebrae, the atlas and axis, held in their natural positions. It isolates the craniovertebral junction, the region that lets the head nod and turn, so it can be studied without the distraction of a whole skull or spine. The set is rod-mounted on a durable polymer base and is used in anatomy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, radiography and nursing teaching. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as a companion to a full human skeleton model in India.
Specifications
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Occipital plate with atlas and axis vertebrae in situ |
| Scale | Life size |
| Size (without stand) | 12 × 9 × 7 cm |
| Mounting | Rod-mounted on a durable polymer base |
Typical Use
The joints between the skull, atlas and axis are unlike any others in the spine, and they are hard to visualise from textbook images. With the bones shown in situ, a lecturer can explain how the occipital condyles rest on the atlas to allow nodding, and how the atlas pivots around the axis to turn the head from side to side. Students can then identify features such as the ring shape of the atlas and the upward projection of the axis.
Physiotherapy and chiropractic courses use the set when discussing neck movement and upper cervical injuries, while radiography students compare it with images of the region. Because it is small and firmly rod-mounted, it can stand on a bench throughout a practical; lift it by the base rather than by the bones to protect the mounting.
Manufacturer
This set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a manufacturer in Ambala, Haryana that trades as ScienceLab and supplies medical, paramedical and school institutions in India and international markets. For company information, see our company profile.
