Visual Man
1800 Cross-Section Images (medical)

From the cover:
“What does the inside of a human body look like? Until now such images were only available in hard-to-find publications that the average person could not afford. The Visual Man CD-ROM contains over 1800 cross-section images of a male body. To obtain these images, the body of an executed murderer was embedded in gelatin, frozen, sliced crosswise into more than 1800 millimeter slices, then digitally photographed — resulting in over 15 !!!!bytes of data. These images were then converted to 24-bit JPEG format to fit onto a single CD-ROM. Included is an easy-to-use Windows interface that runs direct from the the CD-ROM. This interface allows you to fully explore the body and to view the various cross-sections.”
