Pros and cons of Instant Anatomy Flash Cards app for iPhone and iPad

Instant Anatomy Flash Cards app good for

This is a must buy, its a great App for learning and very educational for anyone who needs or wants to learn about the human anatomy in every aspect.

Great App! So much detail and such a good price!!! Good for first year anatomy if in med school

Some bad moments

love this series of apps, these diagrams are brilliant, use them everyday as a med student

This app is horrible! When u look at muscles of an area you get origin and insertion sights on the bone. Not the muscles themselves. You think youre getting a picture of something, but when the page opens its not what it says its supposed to be. Like the sciatic nerve being found under the "surface anatomy" category of of the leg. Ok, not really surface anatomy, but whatever.but u get these crude drawings of what is supposed to be the sciatic nerve and how it travels down the leg (Im assuming thats what its trying to illustrate, but thats only because I know it). If I had to use this app to help myself study anatomy I would be SCREWED. Not a cool app at all.

This is great. Im in the medical field and this is what I needed for the hospital. When Im with a patient, its important to show them what body parts are being affected and how the treat and correct the problem before it gets worse. Once they visualize this, then I work on step two: proper assesement and contining future rehabilitation. Thank you.
