Reanimating the Visible Human (1997)

Reanimating the Visible HumanThis video shows the work done with the Visible Human data between 1995 and 1997 [1-3]. It was presented at the Kurzfilmtage Oberhausen in 1998.

Authors: Karl Heinz Höhne, Bernhard Pflesser, Andreas Pommert, Kay Priesmeyer, Martin Riemer, Thomas Schiemann, Rainer Schubert, Ulf Tiede

Professor Röntgen meets the Virtual Body (1994)

Professor Roentgen meets the Virtual BodyThis video was created to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen [4]. It was first shown at the Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) in 1994. It won the Video Award 1995 of the German Radiological Society (Deutsche Röntgengesellschaft).
