The Visible Human Project: From Body to Bits
IEEE pulse, 2017Co-Authors: Michael J. AckermanAbstract:Atlases of anatomy have long been a mainstay for visualizing and identifying features of the Human body [1]. Many are constructed of idealized illustrations rendered so that structures are presented as three-dimensional (3-D) pictures. Others have employed photographs of actual dissections. Still others are composed of collections of artist renderings of organs or areas of interest. All rely on a basically two-dimensional (2-D) graphic display to depict and allow for a better understanding of a complicated 3-D structure.

the Visible Human Project from body to bits
International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2016Co-Authors: Michael J. AckermanAbstract:In the middle 1990's the U.S. National Library sponsored the acquisition and development of the Visible Human Project® data base. This image database contains anatomical cross-sectional images which allow the reconstruction of three dimensional male and female anatomy to an accuracy of less than 1.0 mm. The male anatomy is contained in a 15 gigabyte database, the female in a 39 gigabyte database. This talk will describe why and how this Project was accomplished and demonstrate some of the products which the Visible Human dataset has made possible. I will conclude by describing how the Visible Human Project, completed over 20 years ago, has led the National Library of Medicine to a series of image research Projects including an open source image processing toolkit which is included in several commercial products.

AMIA - The Visible Human Data Sets (VHD) and Insight Toolkit (ITk): Experiments in Open Source Software: AMIA 2003 Open Source Expo
AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2003Co-Authors: Michael J. Ackerman, Terry S YooAbstract:The initial goal of NLM’s Visible Human Project was to produce a public domain open source database of MRI, CT and anatomical images representing a complete Human male and female. The Visible Human data sets (VHD) became available for FTP download over the Internet in 1994 and 1995 respectively through a royalty free license. The purpose of the license is to track the data set’s usage as part of NLM’s ongoing research program. There are currently 1600 licensees in 43 countries. Although none of the users have added to the VHD, many have provided added value in the form of segmentations, labeling, and graphic interfaces for exploring the dataset. . In 2002, as a continuation of the Visible Human Project, the NLM released ITk, a software toolkit for the segmentation and registration of tomographic image data sets. NLM’s open source goal was to create a dynamic, self-sustaining, public domain and extensible toolkit that will empower researchers throughout the world to develop new segmentation and registration algorithms and create new applications that leverage the NLM’s investment in the Visible Human Male and Female data sets. ITk serves as a common Application Programmers Interface (API) in order to provide: a framework for software development; a toolkit for registration and segmentation; and an open source resource for future research. ITk also contains a validation model for segmentation and registration which provides: a framework for validation development; a seed repository for validated segmentations; and assistance for algorithm designers. About 6 months later, there are already over 100 users. These users are actively suggesting improvements to the existing tools and contributing additional tools to add greater functionality. .

from data to knowledge the Visible Human Project continues
Studies in health technology and informatics, 2001Co-Authors: Michael J. Ackerman, Terry S Yoo, Donald P JenkinsAbstract:The U. S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) has long been a world leader in the archiving and distribution of the print-based images of biology and medicine. NLM has also been a pioneer in the use of computer systems to encode and distribute textual knowledge of the life sciences. NLM's Long Range Planning effort of 1985-86 foresaw a coming era where NLM's Bibliographic and factual database services would be complemented by libraries of digital images, distributed over high speed computer networks. The NLM Planning Panel on Electronic Imaging recommended that NLM should undertake the building a digital image library consisting of computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images, and cryosection images of a representative, carefully selected and prepared male and female cadaver -- the "Visible Human Project ® ." The male and female Visible Human data sets are now being made available through a license agreement with the NLM. The data sets are supporting a wide range of educational, diagnostic, treatment planning, and commercial uses. The NLM, in partnership with other U.S. government research agencies has begun a three prong effort within the Visible Human Project to address: the creation of a new online, interactive, digital head-and-neck atlas; the development of a tool kit of computational programs capable of automatically performing many of the basic data handling functions required for using Visible Human data in applications; and the improved resolution of future Visible Human data sets through the reduction of the anatomical artifacts introduced by the methods used to stabilize and section the anatomical materials and the development of staining and wide-spectrum methods for increasing tissue contrast.

Jackson, Sara Louie, Anh Le Tran, Raunak Borwankar, Goutham N K Srichandhru, Sergey N MakarovAbstract:Simulation of the electromagnetic response of the Human body relies heavily upon efficient computational models or phantoms. The first objective of this paper is to present an improved platform-independent full-body electromagnetic computational model (computational phantom), the Visible Human Project® (VHP)-Female v. 3.1 and to describe its distinct features and enhancements compared to VHP-Female v. 2.0. The second objective is to report phantom simulation for electric stimulation studies using the commercial FEM electromagnetic solver ANSYS MAXWELL.

the Visible Human Project male cad based computational phantom and its use in bioelectromagnetic simulations
International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2017Co-Authors: Gregory M Noetscher, Aung Thu Htet, Nicholas Daniel Maino, Patrick LacroixAbstract:Use of numerical simulation tools to provide qualitative estimates on electromagnetic safety, characterize antenna performance for WBAN applications and facilitate ground breaking research on diagnostic and therapeutic bioelectrical solutions has steadily grown over the past twenty years. However, the accuracy and applicability of such tools are directly proportional to the fidelity of the model used during the simulation. This paper describes the construction of a new CAD based male computational phantom, the Visible Human Project (VHP)-Male model, suitable for use in major commercial electromagnetics simulation packages.
