The Visible Human Project ATLAS of Functional Human Anatomy
Version 1.0 The Head and Neck
Abstract
The Visible Human Project Phase I was completed
in 1995 with
the release of nearly 13,000 pictures on the Internet. The segmentation and classification of the
thorax followed with
the addition of anatomical information to the photographic data. Both of these portions of the
Visible Human Project
were funded by the National Library of Medicine (NLM). Now the NLM has partnered with
other organizations to
incorporate this image data into an educational program and prepare for the production of next
generation datasets.
Keywords: Anatomy, dataset, deglutition, education, facial expression, head and
neck, hearing, mastication, hearing, phonation, tools, vision, world-wide-web.
