Advanced‐sectioned images obtained by microsectioning of the entire male body

Abstract

AbstractRealistic two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) applications for anatomical studies are being developed from true‐colored sectioned images. We generated advanced‐sectioned images of the entire male body and verified that anatomical structures of both normal and abnormal shapes could be visualized in them. The cadaver was serially sectioned at constant intervals using a cryomacrotome. The sectioned surfaces were photographed using a digital camera to generate horizontal advanced‐sectioned images in which normal and abnormal structures were classified. Advanced‐sectioned images of the entire male body were generated. The image resolution was 3.3 × 3.3 fold better than that of the first sectioned images obtained in 2002. In the advanced‐sectioned images, normal and abnormal structures ranging from microscopic (≥0.06 mm × 0.06 mm; pixel size) to macroscopic (≤473.1 mm × 202 mm; body size) could be identified. Furthermore, the real shapes and actual sites of lung cancer and lymph node enlargement were ascertained in them. Such images will be useful because of their true color and high resolution in digital 2D and 3D applications for gross anatomy and clinical anatomy. In future, we plan to generate new advanced‐sectioned images of abnormal cadavers with different diseases for clinical anatomy studies.
