4.2. THE VISIBLE HUMAN
PROJECT
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/visible/visible_human.html
The Visible Human Project(r) is an outgrowth of the NLM's 1986 Long-Range Plan. It is the
creation of complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the
normal male and female human bodies. Acquisition of transverse CT, MR and cryosection
images of representative male and female cadavers has been completed. The male was
sectioned at one millimeter intervals, the female at one-third of a millimeter intervals.
The long-term goal of the Visible Human Project(r) is to produce a system of knowledge
structures that will transparently link visual knowledge forms to symbolic knowledge
formats such as the names of body parts.

CENTER FOR HUMAN SIMULATION - UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO
Excerto: "The marked decline in the availability of classically trained anatomists
and the increased time constraints on teaching faculty provide an opportunity to use
technology in the service of teaching anatomy. This two-school project pairs the image
processing expertise of Stevens with the content expertise of Columbia to create a
network-based, platform independent electronic "course" in anatomy.".

BODY VOYAGE
Excerto: "Body Voyage data was compiled from the dissection of a real human body that
was sliced into over 1,800 sections. Video clips, text explanations, and stunning
fly-throughs are available at the click of the mouse. In addition, BODY VOYAGE allows
users to manipulate and zoom in at varying levels of anatomical depth by dissolving
through layers of skin, muscle, and bone. The CD-ROM is one part of a series which
includes a PBS documentary, a book, a screensaver, and a LIFE magazine cover story."
