Votes:0 STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN EYE The eyes of both mollusks and vertebrates operate on the same basic principle as a camera. A single lens focuses light from all parts of the visual field onto a sheet of light-sensitive cells. Despite the close similarity in structure and function between the eyes of mollusks and vertebrates, all the evidence indicates that they arose and evolved quite separately in the two groups. The human eye is roughly spherical in shape. It is bounded by three distinct layers of tissue. The outer layer, the sclerotic coat , is extremely tough. It is white in color (the ?white" of the eye) except in the front. Here it forms the transparent cornea , which admits light into the interior of the eye and bends the light rays so that they can be brought to a focus. The surface of t Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 3D Virtual Colonoscopy This project employs advanced visualization techniques to achieve virtual imaging and exploration of the human colon. The data sets that have been successfully applied in our experiments include the Visible Human , a simulated plastic pipe, and patient
data (provided by the University Hospital at Stony Brook). In our system, a helical CT scanner is used to obtain a sequence of 2D slices of the human abdomen. These CT slices are then reconstructed into a 3D volume and, subsequently, the human colon is visualized with various
visualization techniques implemented in VolVis , which is a comprehensive volume visualization system intended for scientists and engineers as well as visualization developers. This noninvasive procedure is employed as an alternative method to exi Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Go directly to Probe the Brain activity (81K - requires Shockwave ) Beginning in the 1940s, Canadian brain surgeon Wilder Penfield mapped the brain's motor cortex -- the area that controls the movement of your body's muscles. He did this by applying mild electric currents to the exposed brains of patients while they were in surgery. Now you can relive his exploration of the brain. In the following feature we give you an electric probe and an exposed brain. All you need to do is shock and observe.

Considering bones in pairs, seven joints may be distinguished: the sterno-clavicular joint, which articulates the clavicle by its proximal end onto the sternum, the acromio-clavicular joint, which articulates the scapula by its acromion onto the distal end of the clavicle, the scapulo-thoracic joint, which allows the scapula to glide on the thorax, the gleno-humeral joint, which allows the humeral head to rotate in the glenoid fossa of the scapula, the ulno-humeral and the humero-radial joints, which articulate both ulna and radius on the distal end of the humerus, and finally the ulno-radial joint where both distal ends of ulna Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 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. Early experiments with the physical cross-sections are also
reported.
There is a companion paper on the Visible Woman . Make Your Own Visible Woman shows how to use the Visualization Toolkit to
make and render surface models of the Visible Woman. For more examples of 3D medical imaging don Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 --> Map of the Human Heart Let's get straight to the heart of the matter--the heart's job is to move
blood. Day and night, the muscles of your heart contract and relax to pump blood
throughout your body. When blood returns to the heart, it follows a complicated
pathway. If you were in the bloodstream, you would follow the
steps below one by one. Oxygen-poor blood (shown in blue) flows from the body into the right
atrium. Blood flows through the right atrium into the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs, where the blood releases
waste gases and picks up oxygen. The newly oxygen-rich blood (shown in red) returns to the heart and enters
the left atrium. Blood flows through the left atrium into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood to a Read More Go to Site
