An excellent tool for showing the difference between healthy bone and bone affected by osteoporosis, this model (15 cm x 23 cm x 20 cm) can be used as a table top display, or it can be removed from its wooden base for closer inspection. One side of the model features a cross section of dense bone; the other illustrates porous bone. Great for explaining osteoporosis to patients and students, the model is perfect for starting discussions about the importance of calcium and vitamin D in the diet, as well as regular physical activity for bone strengthening.
