Description:

This reference organ, Left-female-palatine-tonsil (https://humanatlas.io/3d-reference-library) was created using data from the Visible Human Male, provided by the National Library of Medicine (Spitzer et al. 1996; Ackerman 1998). The same anatomy was used for the female model, adjusted to fit with the existing female organs.
