New DVD: take a journey inside your body

I haven’t watched their dvd, but sounds very interesting, possibly supportive of going deeper into energy body communication.

RESEARCHERS TAKE ‘FANTASTIC VOYAGE’ THROUGH THE HUMAN BODY
Rochester Institute of Technology
August 11, 2005

Using revolutionary medical imaging technology, researchers at Rochester
Institute of Technology are providing a better understanding of the human
body and its many secrets.

Led by Richard Doolittle, RIT’s director of the department of medical
sciences, and Paul Craig, professor of chemistry, a team of students has
created never-before-seen virtual images of the pancreas, detailed pictures
of the human skull and DNA-level images of protein molecules. Their findings
were presented today in a virtual tour entitled “3D Visualization in
Science, from molecules to cells to organs.”

“We are now able to create virtual images of the human body at the
microscopic level,” Doolittle notes. “These images have never been produced
before and will help us better understand human development while also
having tremendous implications for the diagnosis and treatment of numerous
diseases.”

The presentation was the culmination of a dual summer research project
undertaken by Doolittle and Craig, including students from the College of
Science and College of Imaging Arts and Sciences. An RIT Provost Learning
and Innovation Grant funded the project and students from the team were able
to conduct some of their research at Brookhaven National Lab through
additional funds provided by the National Science Foundation.

“I am incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication all of the students
brought to this project,” Craig adds “We could not have gotten these results
without their efforts and my ultimate hope is this experience will create a
passion for scientific research that carries them into their professional
careers.”

The imaging process created by the team will eventually be used by RIT
researchers and teachers to provide better insight into how to image and
understand disease states at the microscopic level, shed new light on bone
development and help better understand how proteins bond with other
molecules. The team hopes to expand their research in the future to include
virtual imaging of other organs including the liver and brain.
