The Visible Human Project is part of the National Library of Medicine's plan to create complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the male and female human body. They have collected transverse CT, MRI and cryosection images of a representative male cadaver at 1 mm intervals and of a female at 0.3mm. The long-term goal 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.
