I have played a bit with the Stanford CT head data 
(http://graphics.stanford.edu/data/voldata/), converting the pixels to 
"voxels" ie boxes.

In the first image I have cut all points with a density under 1500. A 
skull built with Lego. About 336000 blocks.

In the second I have left some meat on the bones. Gross, ain'it?
Density 1050 to 1500 as transparent red boxes, density > 2000 as opaque 
"bone coloured" boxes. There are 1399462 boxes in the scene, and it used 
1.1 GB memory.

An animation where you gradually lower the point where you cut the blocks
out would look really good.  I.e. build up from a skeleton to a face.  Just
an idea. :)
