Transverse. RadiologyInfo - The radiology information resource for patients. Frontal. Anatomy Library - Anatomy Atlases. Marching Through the Visible Man. The National Library of Medicine is creating a digital atlas of the human body. This project, called the Visible Human, has already produced computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and physical cross-sections of a human male cadaver. This paper describes a methodology and results for extracting surfaces from the Visible Male's CT data. We use surface connectivity and isosurface extraction techniques to create polygonal models of the skin, bone, muscle and bowels.
