Anatomical Models - Nervous system models

Models of the nervous system are irreplaceable tools used both to learn anatomy in schools and universities, but also as a decorative element in doctor's, physiotherapeutic, osteopathic offices and medical clinics. They offer visual and 3D representations of different parts of the nervous system, helping students, researchers, and medical professionals learn, diagnose, and plan treatment. In the resources of our online store, we have models of the brain, spinal cord, cross-section of the nervous system and its other elements. Each model is an exact representation of anatomical structures, created with great accuracy.

Anatomical structure of the nervous system:

• Central Nervous System (CNS):

• Peripheral nervous system (CNS):

Nervous system functions:

• Communication - The nervous system enables communication between different parts of the body and the organism as a whole.
• Movement control - nerve signals from the brain are sent to the muscles via the motor nerves, which allows for precise control of our movements.
• Feelings and perception - the nervous system allows you to receive external and internal stimuli, and then process them into feelings and perception.
• Coordination - it ensures harmonious cooperation between various organs and systems, enabling the proper functioning of the body as a whole.
• Maintaining homeostasis - The nervous system is involved in maintaining homeostasis, i.e. the internal balance of the body.
• Memory and learning - the appropriate structures of the brain process, store and reproduce information, enabling us to remember facts, experiences and skills.
• Autonomic Regulation - The nervous system controls many autonomic functions such as heart rhythm, breathing, digestion, hormonal secretion, and stress responses. It consists of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, which act antagonistically to regulate these processes.

What does the OpenMedis online store offer?

• Brain models - in our offer we present various types of anatomical models of the brain, which present a detailed representation of brain structures, including different lobes of the brain, such as the frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital lobes. They may also contain separate parts that can be disassembled to better understand specific areas of the brain, such as the hippocampus, thalamus, white matter, and ventricular system. In our store there are e.g. models of the right hemisphere of the brain, neuroanatomical model of the skull with the brain, model of the brain with vascularization, magnified twice brain model, brain coronal sections, actual brain casts.
• Spinal cord models - These models show the structure of the spinal cord and spinal segments. The models show the segment of the spinal cord of the spinal column, the posterior and anterior branches of the spinal nerve, which converge into a spinal nerve.
• Whole nervous system - this subcategory contains models that show the general structure of the peripheral and central nervous systems and the division into the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.

Application of anatomical models of the nervous system:

• Education - an irreplaceable tool in the process of educating students of medical faculties.
• Scientific research – used to analyze and explore various aspects of neurology and neuroanatomy.
• Medical and physiotherapeutic consultations - help in explaining to patients their diseases, diagnostic procedures and treatment methods.
• Presentations and lectures – they help the recipient to understand the topic of the presented material faster.
• Interior design - they diversify the appearance of the office.
