The Visible Animal Viewer

This Java applet and Web-Pages are adapted from the NPAC Visible Human Viewer and allows you to select and view high-resolution images of 2-dimensional slices of a dog, using image data taken from the Visible Animal Project. We are very grateful to Yuh-Jye Chang and Paul Coddington, who developed the original Applet and freely distribute the source code at http://www.dhpc.adelaide.edu.au/projects/vishuman1/Source.html.

If you are having problems viewing this applet, check the NPAC Visible Human Viewer FAQ.

You are viewing this page with a browser that doesn't support Java applets. If you were using a Java-enabled browser that understood the APPLET tag, such as Netscape 4.x, you would see the Visible Animal Viewer here. To view this applet, you should download the latest version of Netscape.
Main Panel:
There are three types of image slices -- Axial, Sagittal and Coronal. Small (preview) images for each of these viewpoints are displayed in the main panel of the viewer. Moving one of the cutting lines will create a new slice through the Visible Dog.
Image Controls:
Select the type of slice you want by clicking on the image or the viewpoint name. This will highlight the name in blue, and the cutting line which produced that image will change from red to cyan. To choose a new slice, click on the cutting line and drag it to a new position. A new preview image will appear after you release the mouse button.
Resolution Controls
Choose the image resolution appropriate for your network connection by clicking one of these buttons:
Low resolution images are up to 40 KBytes.
Medium resolution images are up to 60 KBytes.
High resolution images are up to 90 Kbytes.
Data base Controls:
Choose the image data you prefer by clicking one of these buttons:
Cryo data, based on anatomical cryosections, and the corresponding
CT data.
Access Controls:
The adjust buttons (the triangle buttons) let you fine tune the exact slice number (shown in blue). If you want to see the full size image of the slice you have just chosen, press the Load button to pop up an image slice window.
For more information on using the viewer, check the Visible Animal Viewer User Guide.
