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

I have rendered it with different cutoff values, as suggested by 
Alastair Murray, and put them together as a sort of animation.

The "worst" of the images contains 1.713.361 boxes and used about 1.4GB 
memory. This is not the last image, as I in the folowing images dropped 
all points with a density over 1000. That includes the brain, which 
represents a large part of the 1.7 mill boxes, none of which are visible 
in the images.

Wow, I wasn't really expecting you to actually do it.  Anyway, it looks
quite cool - but is the render time for each frame very high? (with that
many boxes I wouldn't be suprised)  As the only flaw with the animation is
it is very jumpy (especially when most of the flesh is disappearing at it's
quickest, half-way through the 'growth' cycle).  But I like it, it's nice to
see POV-Ray being used for something more bounded in reality.  :-)

Up to nine hours.

This is because all the flesh has the same x-ray density, so when the 
cutoff gets below that, it all appears at once.
