thingiverse

This is a highly detailed scapula replica. Easily identifiable features include: Acromion process Coracoid process Glenoid fossa Subscapular fossa Suprascapular notch Supraspinous and infraspinous fossa Spine of the scapula Superior, lateral, inferior, and acromial angles Superior, medial, and lateral borders The model is sourced from the comprehensive Body Parts 3D Database at http://lifesciencedb.jp/bp3d/?lng=en, which is a NIH-funded database of 3D anatomical structure data. According to their white paper (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2686534/), the models were created from 2 mm interval MRI images of a male volunteer. I refined some non-printable surfaces using Meshmixer, and rotated it for optimal balance between quality and strength. Large features and landmarks on the bone are clearly visible, but smaller details may not be prominent. These models can be printed on 8" x 8" x 8" or 200mm x 200mm x 200mm 3D printers.
