I recently saw some discussion on povray.text.scene-files (I think!) about
rendering a brain
and someone mentioned the CT and MR scan data at
http://graphics.stanford.edu/data/voldata/.
I got the data and converted them to df3 files (around 7MB each!) and
rendered them as an
emitting medium.  The results are quite pretty (and squashed, I got the
scaling wrong!)
This is the CT scan, the MR scan has much more detail and will require more
careful choice
of colourmap to get a clean image.
The 'mouthful of toothpicks' effect is the result of shadowing from the
subjects fillings since this
is an X-Ray image.

What's the render time like?  It would be interesting to see an
animation rotating around the head.

Exactly what I was wondering... I bet an animation could look pretty dam
cool...

Oh, and can you do bizzare things like take arbitary slices through this
guys head? (I presume it's a guy that is......)

Of course, and its a lot less messy than doing it for real I can tell
you...... oops!

I tried a 30 frame animation overnight and I'm completely unimpressed :(
Rotating transparent objects rarely works well and this seems to be a
pathological case of that.  Ah well, the still image is reward enough!

Doh! That is so blindingly obvious, thanks.
