Abstract
A variety of projects are underway to develop applications and products based on the data sets in the National Library of Medicine´s Visible Human project and in the Voxel Man atlas project (see ibid., p.7-9). Several of them are presented, as well as updates on other medical graphics applications; they include the following: 3D volumetric rendering of human colon via CT scans; Interactive Volume Browser on the World Wide Web; and Voxel System for holographic viewing of medical applications
