Human anatomy · Right side

Right hip region

Study the hip bone and femur in 3D, locate the hip socket, and understand what this partial model does and does not show.

Atlas notePartial educational model, not a complete dissection. Original whole meshes are retained; close-ups may leave long bones outside the frame. Cartilage, separate ligaments, nerves and vessels are absent. Anatomical review pending.

Understand the region · Right side

Where the thigh meets the pelvis

A socket within the hip bone

The adult hip bone combines the ilium, ischium and pubis. All three contribute to the acetabulum, the socket on its outer side.

OpenStax · Pelvic girdle and pelvis ↗

Bone shape is only part of the joint

The femoral head fits into the acetabulum to form a ball-and-socket joint. In the body, cartilage, a labrum and a strong capsule contribute to the joint; a bone-only view cannot demonstrate their behavior.

Try it in 3D

Open Guided study · 3 steps above the model. Each button selects the matching structure on this side and sets a useful view. Isolated steps hide the other structures; Show context restores this region.

  1. Locate the socket

    Use the oblique view, then rotate the hip bone to inspect the hollow facing the femoral head. Both bones stay visible for orientation.

  2. Follow the femur

    Highlight the femur without hiding the hip bone. Compare its rounded head with the socket; the shaft continues outside this close-up.

  3. Inspect the hip bone alone

    Isolate the hip bone and rotate it. Use Show context afterward to restore the regional view.
