Continuing the Legacy of Grant's Museum: Anatomy Education in the Digital Era.

While the Artec Space Spider may be a great tool to quickly generate anatomical models with simple geometry or features, it may not be ideal for replicating intricate anatomical prosections. Only 40% of scans took less than 3 hours to complete with most moderately complex models and all complex models taking over 3 hours. Much of the time spent on these models was in post-processing, which was dedicated to filling gaps or refining the details of the models. Our findings suggest that the time:cost ratio may not justify the purchase of such high-level technology when photogrammetry may result in similar models for relatively less investment.
