The techniques of radiology have been taken beyond 2-D images
by many artists, into the realms of sculpture. Some of the most
extraordinary works have been created by Marilène Oliver where
she printed full-body, life-sized MR images onto acrylic sheets.
The sheets were then assembled into tall rectangular boxes,
each one representing a family member. After this process, there
are no software based modifications applied to the images. His
extraordinary creations have been exhibited around the world
with the proceeds donated to charity.
