dimensional anatomy

Dimensional anatomy examines the organization and relationships of structures within the body based on different measurement scales or "dimensions." It considers how tissues, organs, and systems occupy space in three dimensions—length, width, and depth—and how they relate to each other spatially. This perspective helps us understand the complexity of anatomy beyond just size or shape, emphasizing the spatial arrangement and how structures interact within the body. It’s valuable for fields like medical imaging, surgery, and biological research, as it provides a comprehensive view of human anatomy in its three-dimensional context.
