This Equine Hoof 3D Printed Model - Model 2 has been professionally designed based on CT and MR data.
This full-colour 3D printed model has been created to be anatomically accurate and life-sized, making it the ideal equine training tool for veterinary and equine students. Each anatomical component is colour coded, helping students to understand the full anatomy of the horse's foot.
This Equine Hoof 3D Printed Model is part of a series from Erler Zimmer which consists of four models. These range from models showing anatomical structures to models showing deeper structures.
The bones, ligaments, tendons and cartilaged listed below can be found on model 1, 2, 3 and 4. In addition to these this model (2) also shows the proximal sesamoidean ligaments, impar ligament and the collateral ligaments of the distal sesamoid (navicular) bone:
Third metacarpal bone; Proximal sesamoid bones; Proximal phalanx; Middle phalanx; Distal phalanx; Distal sesamoid (navicular) bone; Ungular cartilages; Collateral ligaments of the metacarpophalangeal joint; Collateral ligaments of the proximal interphalangeal joint and the abaxial palmar ligaments of the foot; Collateral ligaments of the distal interphalangeal joint; Collateral ligament of the distal sesamoid (navicular) bone; Distal sesamoidean impar ligament; Proximal scutum and intersesamoidean ligament; Cruciate sesamoidean ligament; Short sesamoidean ligaments; Oblique sesamoidean ligaments; Straight sesamoidean ligament; Axial palmar ligaments of the foot; Suspensory ligament and extensor branches; Deep digital flexor tendon; Superficial digital flexor tendon; Common digital extensor tendon.
Hoof capsules can be purchased separately, helping to anchor the distal limb in the stance position.
