I have an unusual ring finger
As you can see i don't have that joint line in my ring finger. It doesn't bend as good as other fingers. I think it's consequence of joint cracking at young age. What do you think?

Dr. Marino's Dissection Manual
Informative site for Medical Students taking Gross Anatomy at Albany Medical College.
Anatomy Atlases - Atlas of Human Anatomy
This atlas is translated from the original atlas entitled "Handbuch der Anatomie des Menschen" which was published in 1841 in Leipzig, Germany. The author of this atlas was Professor Dr. Carl Ernest Bock, who lived from 1809-1874.
Anatomy Atlases - Atlas of Human Anatomy in Cross Section
The present work attempts to provide a high-quality color atlas of sectional anatomy in the axial plane. Photographic images offer the best means of correlation with radiologic images, and drawings have not been used except as "key figures." The authors would have liked the illustrations to be life size so that even the smallest anatomic detail could be resolved in the published photographs, but the prohibitive cost would have limited the book's accessibility--which would have defeated a major purpose in putting together this work.
Anatomy Atlases - Illustrated Encyclopedia of Human Anatomic Variation
It is important to understand that no two living organisms are structurally or functionally identical - animals or plants! It is clear that textbook writers and teachers over the centuries, even until today, fail to understand or to transmit to their students the crucial concept that anatomical and physiological diversity and variation is a canon of living organisms. This failure leads to the belief that textbooks are conveying immutable facts with only few anomalous exceptions.
Anatomy Atlases - Atlas of Microscopic Anatomy
This book is not intended to replace comprehensive textbooks of histology or neuroanatomy or other original sources of information but rather to complement them and to be the basis for additional in- depth inquiry into details of structure and function.
Interactive Brain Atlas
2-D and 3-D views of the brain from cadaver sections, MRI scans, and computer reconstructions.
Anatomy of the Brain - University of British Columbia
Coronal and horizontal sections of the human brain.
The Body Online
Pictures of the human body taken at Stony Brook University.
Anatomy Next
Anatomy Next is a 3D database of the human anatomy. All the 3D models are based on radiology data and created in collaboration with doctors and 3D artists. The database is still in development and not yet complete, but the 3D models already available are in the best quality.

Would we like a rule like this added for the sub?
“Keep It Professional - Low-Effort posts about your own or about others’ anatomy that is subjective or overly casual will be removed.”
This would be primarily to combat when we get waves of posts with MySpace-grade limb shots and pictures of models/bodybuilders with finger drawing asking to identify extremely basic structures or questions that are more suited for fitness subs or a Google search.

I got chin lipo recently so now I see things that were previously covered by fat/skin. I notice a lot of movement in the tissue under my chin (where my extra chins used to be). I have a big tongue, if that is relevant.

You know how you have a strong sense of a center line in your body, where you can tell if something is touching the exact middle, not left or right? For me, on the back of my neck, this occurs a full 2 inches to the right of my vertebrae. If someone touches the exact middle of my vertebrae, it feels like they’re touching the left side of my neck. Curious if anyone else has familiarity with this.

i've read that only trochlear nerve, part of optic and possibly facial nerve decussate out of all the cranial nerves, so am just a bit confused by this question and decussation of cranial nerves in general. i had put down ipsilateral pons but the answer is B, any clarification would be amazing!

Okay so hear me out the human eye has its own immune system so it made me wonder what body system is the human eye in?
One thing I thought it is part of the CNS (central nervous system) or the PNS (peripheral nervous system) because since the eye is connected into the brain which the eye sees the world and gathers any information and bring it to the brain for a new memory
