Incorporating visible human project data into the undergraduate anatomy and physiology curriculum.
The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse is developing a software environment which will allow undergraduates in anatomy and physiology to directly manipulate the Visible Human Data Set. The software environment provides students with a "personal digital cadaver" for study. The system incorporates a volume rendering daemon for imaging the digital cadaver. Central to the system is the concept of an anatomical notebook in which students record and annotate the studies.
