BODIES THE EXHIBITION (in Athens Greece)

I have been waiting so long to finally go to this exhibition. Yesterday 9 April 2009 Thursday I went with my mother to it. It was amazing that the bodies were real and from people who donated their bodies to science. I really enjoyed going. The exhibition showed different systems like the nervous system, digestive system, and parts of the respiratory system. the exhibition also showed many organs like the heart, liver, brain, kidneys, etc. All of these organs and bodies were preserved and dissected. It is a really interesting way the surgeons preserved the organs and the bodies. From what I remember the surgeons first put a special liquid on the bodies that preserved them and then they would plasticize them. I recomend everyone to go see this exhibit.
