This page contains every source used in the creation of westernanatomy.com, with articles grouped by publication, and sorted alphabetically within. Given that the site itself is still under construction, this page will see regular updates as new information is added to the model.

For transparency's sake, Kenhub was the primary source of information for most structures. Some smaller, more niche regions were difficult to find quality information on. Any citation outside of Kenhub or PubMed came from a legitimate medical journal or a similarly credibile .org/.edu site. If any sources, information, or citations seem incorrect, please contact me using my links at the bottom, or by e-mailing me here.
