Our bodies are a mystery to us. We may see our arms and legs move, but we have no idea how the muscles beneath look as they contract. We know that our stomachs digest food and our hearts pump blood throughout our bodies, but the images we have in our heads of these organs are often inaccurate or incomplete. Even seeing pictures of our internal systems and organs can be misleading if these pictures dont offer a full, 360-degree view.
Anatomy 360 shows the human body in its entiretyfrom the skin to the muscles to the organs to the bones. This stunning book provides a unique perspective on our most crucial parts, showing how the structures of our bodies influence their functions. Youll learn about the vagus nerve, which allows us to swallow, speak and cough, and the frontalis muscle, which raises our eyebrows when were surprised. Youll also learn why our noses run when we cry and why our brains are so important even though they weigh just one kilogram each.
With Anatomy 360, youll finally get a complete look at the human bodyeven the parts you thought youd never see!

CONTENTS 
The amazing images found within this book are taken from the interactive products of Primal Pictures. They are generated from a comprehensive 3-D model that has taken twenty years to complete and is made up of more than 7,000 individual anatomical structures.

National Library of Medicine and involved the production of a male and female set of cross sectional photographs. The bodies were frozen in a hardening agent then sectioned axially (horizontally). Each 0.3mm section was ground away at a time, and the remains photographed. The pixels of the axial data set were reconfigured to produce matching coronal and sagittal slices. Once each component was labeled throughout the entire data set, the labels were transferred into the 3-D computer graphics package, Houdini. At this very moment numerous chemical reactions are taking place within the trillions of specialized cells that make up our tissues, organs, and systems. Working together, they allow us to move, to grow, to breathe, to eat, to react to our environment, and even to interact with one another. Thanks to our incredible bodies, we are living organisms that not only survive, but thrive, here on planet Earth. As we take this journey through the human body we will see the remarkable way in which the body is adapted and organized to allow this to happen. |
Segmentation Our anatomy team viewed the cross-sectional images and used an in-house program to digitally outline every individual anatomical structure at each level, and often in all three planes. This process is known as segmentation and took the team over four years to complete.
This image shows a label around the caudate nucleus of the brain on an axial slice. Splines In Houdini, the graphics team used the labels to create a 3-D shape of each anatomical component. Here are the rings for the lateral ventricles of the brain seen in axial, sagittal, and coronal directions, and combined together. 
The sets of rings taken were then skinned and manually manipulated to provide smooth realistic shapes. 
The human body is truly amazing.
