Interactive Human Anatomy at Ohio University.
This page presents interactive 3D visualizations of
human anatomical structure. Our team has been visualizing human
anatomical structure based on CT scanning since 2006, and some
of our work on a dried skull (OUVC 10503) was published in 2008
. Additional
materials will be added. The project is led by Lawrence Witmer
and Ryan Ridgely
, and Ridgely has done all
of the segmentation, 3D visualization, and animation. Movies
have been labeled and 3D PDFs have been assembled by William Porter
, Ashley Morhardt
, and Jason Bourke
.
Visualizations of human skull. A human skull (OUVC 10503) was CT scanned on a General Electric LightSpeed Ultra Multi-Slice CT scanner with the assistance of Heather Rockhold, RT, at O’Bleness Memorial Hospital, Athens, Ohio, with a slice thickness of 625 μm at 120 kV and 200 mA. The brain endocast, labyrinth of the inner ear, paranasal sinuses, and paratympanic sinuses were segmented by Ryan Ridgely in Amira and visualized using Maya and QuickTime. This work was initially published in 2008 in The Anatomical Record as part of a larger study on the nasal cavity and sinuses of dinosaurs.
