Abstract:

Human lacuna studying aims at the investigation of the anatomical characteristics of lacuna in human body and relationships with relevant clinical departments based on traditional parenchymatous organ research. It is of great significance for the development, the diffusion of microorganism and neoplasm metastasis, clinical imaging, clinical diagnosis and treatment, drug delivery and surgical operation approach. Especially with the development of clinical technology, detailed human body structure was required to meet with it. In this paper, the lacunas of human body were divided into space lacunae, potential lacunae and soft tissue lacunae. In addition to the traditional method of lacuna study, digital human body, plastination and endoscope technologies should be applied. Part of anatomical characteristics of the epidural space was listed as an example.
