Human skeleton

For Rüdiger Anatomy, this is the "standard" skeleton, for competitors, it is "the" skeleton standard par excellence! All of the skeleton's bones are 100% molded from a real human skeleton. This model not only features ideal bone structures, but also some anatomical peculiarities (e.g. an impacted wisdom tooth in the lower jaw or a misalignment of the coccyx). All of the details and subtleties of each individual human bone are reproduced exactly. Anatomically correct and absolutely true to life!

The skull is the most distinctive feature of Rüdiger Anatomy skeletons! No other manufacturer equips its skeletons with such a high-quality skull! It is removable and can be dismantled into four parts: The lower jaw is removable. A bone flap in the lower jaw allows a view of the tooth root, spongiosa, nerve canal and an impacted wisdom tooth. The majority of the teeth of a normal adult can be removed from the jaw individually and reinserted using a special adhesive. The skull cap is removable to allow a view of the fully developed skull base. The nerve canals in the skull base are all open. The skeleton shows all of the usual 206 to 214 bones of a normal adult. All 24 individual vertebrae, all 12 ribs on each side of the body, all 26 bones on each foot and all 27 bones on each hand and on each side of the body are shown individually and carefully assembled.

Of course, all skeletons are equipped with individual kneecaps and a hyoid bone. The joints of the arms and legs are designed so that all natural movements can be reproduced. For example, the cross and parallel position of the radius and ulna can be clearly shown when the wrist is turned. Using special sliding joint hinges (see photo) for attaching the arms and legs to the torso, sliding movements within the shoulder and thigh joint are also possible. The arms and legs are removable.

The skeleton comes with a mobile 5-foot tripod and dust cover.
