Okay.
Are you ready?
I'm ready.
Okay.
Here's our anatomical model.
That is crazy.
You can see the heart inside.
That's cool.
He's just made out of light.
That's definitely a man, all right.
Yes.
So, Mark, do you have something that will show more internal
organs?
Because right now, he's kind of hollowed out.
Right.
We can choose what to display.
Today, we've just got a few things here, but let's take a,
for example, a closer look at the heart.
Oh, wow.
And with just a few clicks, we can come in and look.
This simulated patient does have a plaque in their artery, but
it's right up here.
Oh, the yellow thing?
Yeah, exactly.
Oh, it's a blockage.
Exactly.
You better get him some statins.
Just a few clicks of our fingers, we can see all this
detail.
We can look and see inside the heart, and this would take
hours in a cadaver lab.
And how do you think this is going to change medicine,
Toby?
I think we're seeing it right now in education, and I think
it's going to move on to the clinical applications.
It's going to teach patients in the future about their
problems.
It's going to be an incredibly expanding way to
understand what's going on in the human body.
