Welcome to the Department of Virtual Morphology!

Morphology (ancient Greek μορφή) is the study of the form, shape, and structure of living beings and organisms. In this regard, virtual morphology is a representation of the shape and structure of various entities.

Virtual Morphology uses modern imaging techniques in medicine (x-rays, ultrasounds, computer tomographies, MR tomographies, etc.) in a revolutionary way to support the study of morphology.

We are currently focused on establishing and advancing studies in virtual anatomy as part of the medical degree program based on the course "Virtual Anatomy and Patho-Anatomy" offered at the JKU medSPACE.
