3B Scientific K26 Anatomical Model of Gallstones

Product Description

The 3B Scientific K26 anatomical model, scaled down to half the size of a real gallbladder, is designed to clearly illustrate the anatomy of the biliary system and the changes caused by the presence of gallstones.

Visible on the gallbladder wall are:

• an acute infection (cholecystitis)

• tissue changes due to a chronic infection

Gallstones are depicted in their typical sites of formation:

• the base of the gallbladder

• the area of the spiral valve

• common bile duct

• the papilla opening into the small intestine

The model is mounted on a base for practical and durable display, suitable for educational and clinical use.
