Understanding the visuospatial aspects of anatomic structures is one of the most important goals of gross anatomy. Creation of realistic three-dimensional structures of human anatomy has thus been a goal of medical doctors and computer scientists. In this paper, we describe a PC/NT based system in which a user can easily select anatomical structures to be created, along with the chosen connected structures. The system then constructs a three-dimensional volumetric model, a virtual body structure, slice-by-slide. Once the virtual structure is assembled it is possible to “walk” through the volume with coronal, sagittal, and transverse views, or at any angle. The dynamic nature of the system is unique in that it allows for real time choice of volumetric body structures to be created, their rapid generation, and the ability to manipulate the resulting visualization.
