BIODIGITAL HUMAN - Google Chrome App that allows you to explore the body in 3D

[emitflesti]

Hello Everybody!
Before posting this I did a Forum Search on "Biodigital" and nothing came up in the search results.
I was wondering if anybody has ever used the BioDigital App from the Chrome Web Store?

If not, it's a pretty cool app IMHO for people like me who like the "hands on" approach for visualization and interaction.
In case anybody is interested in checking it out and playing around here's what you'll need:
1) Web Browser - Google Chrome
2) Go to Chrome Web Store and search for "Biodigital Human"
3) + Add to Chrome


I've been just playing around with it for the last hour or so and here's my link of how the Endocrine System, Vagus Nerve, Pineal/Pitutary Glands looks like in case anybody is interested:

Side Note: I would love to have other people, with more medical knowledge than me, on this forum to share there own links and discoveries

I hope this helps
Andrej :)

Here's some background on the visible human project:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_Human_Project

Some years ago, I read that a condemned prisoner had consented to having his body used in such a project, and after his death his body was snap frozen, then sliced into thin slices which were then scanned.
Not sure if this is the same project, but it must have been something similar.
