Acland’s Video Atlas of Human Anatomy features nearly 330 high-quality videos, real cadaveric specimens in 3D, providing comprehensive coverage for anatomy courses, labs, and self-directed online learning, now with updated visuals, terminology, and improved learning tools.

Dr. Robert Acland presents moving human structures in their natural colors — muscles, tendons, and joints — making the same movements that they make in real life. His approachable videos guide learners through complex structures, from bone to surface anatomy, building a clear foundation for understanding anatomical structure and function.

The entire collection has been refreshed, with updates to content and functionality on a new, modern platform. Among other changes, the refreshed Acland’s includes enhanced videos, new short and linkable sets of Practice Questions, a new Key Terms resource, updated anatomical terminology, and a new English-Latin language option — the first time that Acland’s is available with Latin labels!

Acland's Video Atlas of Human Anatomy is searchable and accessible on all platforms and optimized for mobile devices.

The unique approach of Dr. Acland: Seeing and learning, true-to-life, and in three dimensions

Traditional learning tools often struggle to convey the body’s complex three‑dimensional structures. Dr. Robert Acland’s approach brings anatomy to life through dynamic object rotation — no special equipment or software required — just real human anatomy in motion. Seeing structures rotate in natural color and texture helps learners intuitively build true 3D understanding. Through simple, easy‑to‑navigate videos, Acland’s Atlas makes even the most complex anatomy accessible and engaging for students, educators, and healthcare professionals.
