CT Scanner (large print)
by RnibImage shows a cross section of a circular CT scanner with the patient lying flat on a bed in the centre of the scanner. The view is of the patient with their head to the front. To the top left, within the scanner is rectangle labelled X-ray tube from which an X-ray beam is being emitted across the scanner and through the patient. The circular frame of the scanner is labelled 'Ring of detectors connected to a computer'.

Hinge joint (Knee) (large print)
by RnibThis page shows two diagrams of the knee hinge joint, each surrounded by an image border. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. In the top half of the page is a cross section of the joint shown from the front with the knee cap missing. The upper and lower bones end in the centre of the image. The bones are held together by ligaments to the left and right. In the bottom half of the page is a side view of the joint. The upper bone has a rounded end in the centre of the image. The lower bone ends in the centre of the image and forms a very shallow cup. The bones are held together by ligaments, to the left and right. The knee cap is embedded into the ligament to the left.

Hormones (UEB uncontracted)
by RnibThis page shows an image of a body outline. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The image is surrounded by a dashed line image border. The legs and most of the arms are not shown. There are two small glands in the head at the base of the brain and the thyroid gland in the neck. In the middle of the page are the adrenal glands that sit on and above the kidneys just above the waistline. Just down from them is the pancreas, which is bigger on the left. Down again in the pelvis, in the female are the ovaries. At the bottom of the page, in the male are the testes.

How synapses work (Large print)
by RnibThis page shows a synapse in action. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The synapse is where one neuron meets the next neuron. Only the very end of the neuron is shown on the left and the very beginning of the next neuron on the right. The impulse arrives from the left. This stimulates chemicals in the end of the first neuron to move into the synaptic gap. The chemicals attach to receptors to the right in the start of the next neuron. This triggers a new impulse which goes right along the neuron.

How white blood cells protect you from disease (large print)
by RnibThese pages show three different ways white blood cells destroy pathogens and protect the body. It is a multi-page image set on three pages. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left when the image is the correct way up. Ingesting and destroying microorganisms: This image shows a white blood cell filling the left of the page. On the left of the cell is a lobed nucleus. On the right of the page is a pathogen. It has tiny flagella all over its surface and a small oval nucleus. It is being engulfed by the white blood cell. Producing antibodies: This image shows a white blood cell filling the left of the page. In the centre of the cell is a round nucleus. On the right of the page are three bacteria. They have tiny flagella all over their surfaces and each has a small oval nucleus. The one in the right centre and bottom right have an antigen attached to them. The white blood cell has produced four antibodies with cup-like indentations. One of these antibodies has attached itself to the antigen on the bottom right bacterium. Producing antitoxins: This image shows a white blood cell filling the left of the page. In the centre of the cell is a round nucleus. On the bottom right of the page is a bacterium. It has tiny flagella all over its surface and a small oval nucleus. Up from the bacterium are three triangular toxin molecules. The white blood cell is producing antitoxin molecules. Two are attached to its right surface, one is floating to the right and the fourth is down from the white blood cell. It has attached itself to a toxin molecule, to neutralise it.

Human female reproductive system (tactile)
by Sheffield Vi ServiceThis is a labelled, cross section diagram of a human females reproductive system showing the vagina, uterus and ovaries.
Human Gut (contracted)
by RnibThis is a two-page document showing the organs of the human gut. The diagrams are labelled with numbers and may be used for testing purposes. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Page one shows the digestive system. The head is shown at the top of the page and the trunk is shown separately in the bottom part of the page. Page two shows the digestive system with the head and mouth at the top centre of the page and the anus at the bottom centre.
Human Heart Cross-section (tactile)
by RnibThis two page diagram consists of a key, and a page showing a cross-section of the heart, with arrows indicating blood flow, and labels for different sections of the heart.
Human Muscular System (tactile)
by RnibThis is an eight-page document showing labelled cut-away diagrams of the human muscular system. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Page one shows a human body from the front with the head at the top centre of the page. Page two shows the trunk seen from the front. Page three shows a right arm seen from the front.

Human Pelvis (large print)
by RnibThis image shows the bones of the human pelvis. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The pelvis is shown from the front. In the top centre of the image is a triangular bone, the sacrum. The wide curved top is where the spine would attach. Going down the page the sacrum narrows and ends in four small bones which is the coccyx, the residual 'tail' in humans. To the left and right are the rounded hip bones. These narrow and curve down and forwards in an arch to the right and left, to the centre of the image. Where they meet is the pubic symphysis and a small piece of cartilage joins them. This is just down from the coccyx. Although this area is very close to the tip of the coccyx in the image, in reality they are at opposite ends of the pelvis. The pubic area is at the front of the pelvis and the coccyx is at the very back. To the left and right of the pubic area the bone curves down, left and right and then up. This forms two holes or foramen. From these to the left and right, and up slightly is a circular area on the edge of the pelvis. These are the sockets for the long bone (femur) of the upper leg.
