Legal Note

There are many different areas to explore in the UNSW Embryology Program.
Areas to explore will vary depending on the method used to access the program. There is also a Text Only Version of this page. One of the easiest is to use the Embryology Notes as a start point to specific sections. Alternatively read the information below about the different sections and the various control panels in each of the sections.

About the panels

The main opening page is the navigation link to all the sections available.

If you are interested in working with the Embryology class images there are 2 major serial sections 6mm Pig and 27mm Human and a high power selected Human series to view.

The Embryology class images can be viewed in 3 different ways: Unlabelled, Labelled and Tutorial.

Below each image is a navigation panel which has buttons that link to specific pages.

Sagittal

ANAT 3311

In ANAT 3311 an alternative method of navigation is to use the specific sections within the class notes which are linked to all resources within the program related to that topic.

Note that currently for ANAT 2007 only the Section Images is used in classes and the section More Images and Text is not part of the current course.

Navigation Panels

Below or above each image is a navigation panel which has buttons that link to specific pages. There are currently several slightly different navigation panels depending on which image set is used.

Unlabelled Image Control Panel

Note that in both the Human and Pig serial sections, clicking on the image itself will also take you to the next image in the series. (CD Users: only Human set works)

Labelled Image Control Panel

Differs only in linking to the Unlabelled Image

The Labelled Images may also have aditional information about related structures within the viewed image below the navigation panel.

Note that in both the Human and Pig serial sections, clicking on the image itself will also take you to the next image in the series. (CD Users: only Human set works)

Tutorial Image Control Panel

Differs only in linking to the Unlabelled and Labelled Images

The Tutorial Images have structures labelled only with numbers.
Not all structures are numbered.
A Table lying below the navigation panel identifies each structure.

Sagittal Image Control Panel

General Information about Sections of the Program

Serial Sections

Two sets of serial sections are shown based on the microfiche images used in the practical classes.
The 6mm Pig Embryo is shown as serial transverse and some sagittal sections.
The 26mm Human Embryo is shown as serial transverse sections.
High power selected images of specific structures are also shown.

Tutorials

These images are unlabelled and give the oppportunity for students to self-test themselves using material from the program. The key to the label is a Table that has to be scrolled down to below the navigation panel on the page.

Human Stages

This is a set of Human embryos from the Kyoto collection. Reproduced with permission from K.S.

Human Sagittal

This is a set of Human embryo images taken in the mid-sagittal plane and includes some high power images of each section.

Movies

Relationships between structures in serial sections can be seen. 3 dimensional sturctures can be rotated and some sequences of development have been "morphed".

Other Embryos

Some illustrations of development in other species.

Journals

This gives both a link and a short description of Research Journal sites available on the Web.

WWW Links

This gives both a link and a short description of other Embryology Related sites available on the Web.

New Methods

There are a number of new methods available for the study of Embryological development.
Such as: Other species, Molecular tools, imaging methods, antibody studies.

Early Development

This section describes egg/sperm development, fertilization, blastula development and implantation.

Molecular Mechanisms

This section describes the cutting edge of embryology, that of the actual mechanisms of development. Currently under development, CD was cut prior to this sections completion.

Abnormal Development

This section describes when mechanisms or genes lead to abnormal patterns of development. In version 1.0 this section not developed

Liz's Neuro Class

This section is a series of recommended images for one of Dr Tancred's neurobiology classes.

Anat 3311 Notes

This section gives the note set used in Mammalian Embryology Practical Classes. It is a fully integrated note set with links to Lecture Notes from the course and specific links to images in the UNSW Embryology Program.

How to Use the Set

You are currently looking at this section.

This section gives information about the UNSW Embryology structure and some possible ways of investigating devevelopment using the program.

Acknowledgements

Many people have contributed both time and content to this current program. Original research references are given where possible and it is suggested that these are a starting point for further investigations.

Hint: You will always see more of each page if you minimize the menu bar at the top of the page in the WWW Browser. Therefore in WWW Browser Options

General Preferences select "show tool bar as Text"

CD

If you have purchased the CD version, then unless you are currently connected to the internet these links will not function. The addresses are given though and you can make them into bookmarks or gain access if you connect with the internet. Note that further technical information, other than supplied with the CD, is not available from the author.

The program should run on any WWW Browser (About WWW Browsers.). Movies will only be displayed on computers capable of displaying Quicktime movies and with the Quicktime plug-in.

Internet

If you are accessing this site by the internet WWW, then you will be using the current version available on the School of Anatomy Server. This version may differ slightly from the CD as it is continuously being updated. Note also that this is an image intensive program, so unless you have a fast link or know exactly where you wish to go it may be slow.

Hint: turn off "auto download images" option on your web browser until you get to the page of interest. A text only Site Map Page is also available to help with quick navigation to the page of interest.

Anatomy School Computer

If you are accessing this site by the School of Anatomy classroom computers, then you will be using the current version available on the School of Anatomy Server. This version may differ slightly from the CD as it is continuously being updated.

Important Note to Anatomy Server Users

Using the Anatomy server version of the program you cannot connect with any WWW Links outside the University of New South Wales.

This button is in the menu bar at the top of some pages. It is a WWW link to the School of Anatomy page equivilant to that on the CD Version. This allows you to see the latest version of this particular page as the Anatomy version is continuously updated.

Note that the button will not work if you are not connected to the WWW at the time.
