About This File
This 3D model of the epithelium of the colon provides a highly detailed and anatomically accurate representation of the structural layers of the colonic wall. It highlights the simple columnar epithelium with goblet cells, which produce mucus to facilitate the passage of waste.
The model also showcases the crypts of Lieberkühn, submucosa, muscularis externa, and serosa, offering insights into the colon’s role in water absorption and waste formation.
Designed for educational and clinical purposes, this model is an invaluable tool for studying gastrointestinal anatomy, understanding colonic function, and visualizing conditions such as colitis, polyps, and colorectal cancer.
Ideal for gastroenterologists, educators, and students, it supports teaching, training, and patient education by providing a hands-on approach to exploring the structure and function of the colonic epithelium and its role in the digestive system.
