  abstract = {The computer scientists of EPFL (Prof. R.D. Hersch and his
  staff), in collaboration with the Geneva Hospitals and WDS Technologies SA,
  have developed a parallel image server to extract image slices of the Visible
  Human from any orientation. This 3D dataset originates from a prisoner
  sentenced to death who offered his body to science. The dead body was frozen
  and then cut and digitized into 1 mm horizontally spaced slices by the
  National Library of Medicine, Bethesda-Maryland and the University of
  Colorado, USA. The total volume of all slices represents a size of 13 Gbyte
  of data.},
