he Visible Human Project® is an outgrowth of the NLM's 1986 Long-Range Plan. It is the creation of complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the normal male and female human bodies. Acquisition of transverse CT, MR and cryosection images of representative male and female cadavers has been completed. The male was sectioned at one millimeter intervals, the female at one-third of a millimeter intervals.

Most of the sites listed here provide free access to medical images for educational use.

The images are taken mainly from images collected by Professor Donald R. Thursh, deceased. Dr. Thursh collected these images during the 70's while he was Professor Pathology at New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York. The images were digitized and a hypertext version was initiated at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign, by Dr. Thursh and Dr. Levy, with Dr. Patricia Jean O'Morchoe continuing Dr. Thursh's efforts following his death.
