Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0108076A1] A system and method for displaying visual images of a living being, such as a human body or parts thereof, is provided. The system and method is also adapted to display visual images of the effects of disease, drugs, surgery and other treatments thereon. In its preferred arrangement, the images are in a three dimensional format, preferably animated, and may be viewed from any desired angle, direction, cross-section or other view point. The system may be implemented on a single computer (3), or, utilising modems and a communications carrier (2), may be embodied on a central database (1) having a plurality of remote terminals (3) connected thereto, for example, using the Internet. Other software, such as professional packages, using, for example, electronic drug databases, prescription software, etc., may be integrated with the system.
