Description

Key Features

  • Enlarged Scale: The model is much larger than a life-size ovary, allowing for the clear visualization of microscopic structures that would otherwise not be visible.

  • Depicts the Ovarian Cycle: This is the model's most important feature. It typically shows the following progressive stages in one cohesive view:

    • Primordial and primary follicles

    • Secondary (antral) follicle

    • Mature Graafian follicle (ready for ovulation)

    • Ovulation (the rupture of the follicle and release of the oocyte)

    • Corpus luteum (the structure that forms from the follicle after ovulation)

    • Corpus albicans (the degenerated scar tissue of the corpus luteum)

  • Cross-Sectional View: The cutaway design reveals the internal anatomy, including the outer cortex where follicles develop and the central medulla containing blood vessels and nerves.

  • Durable Construction: Made from a high-quality, durable PVC plastic, often hand-painted, and mounted on a sturdy base for classroom display and study.

  • Identification Key: Usually accompanied by a key card or manual that identifies the numbered or colored structures on the model.

This model is a valuable teaching aid in a variety of settings:

  • Anatomy and Physiology: Used in high school, college, and university courses to teach the female reproductive system and the endocrine cycle.

  • Biology and Embryology: Essential for illustrating the processes of oogenesis, meiosis, and human reproduction.

  • Medical and Nursing Schools: A fundamental tool for students studying gynecology, endocrinology, and reproductive medicine to understand the physiological basis of the menstrual cycle.

  • Patient Education: Used by gynecologists and fertility specialists to help patients visualize and understand their cycle, ovulation, and various medical conditions or treatments (like IVF).

 the Human Ovary model (SB50957) is a detailed, magnified educational tool designed to provide a clear, visual representation of the dynamic processes occurring within the ovary throughout the menstrual cycle.
