The Visible Human Project. The Visible Human Project is creating a complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representation of the male and female human body. The current phase of the project is collecting transverse CT, MRI and cryosection images of representative male and female cadavers at one millimeter intervals. The Project will produce a system of knowledge structures that will transparently link visual knowledge forms to symbolic knowledge formats such as the names of body parts.
