CT Anatomy GLB Viewer

CT Anatomy GLB Viewer

Lets you orbit 3D models of real CT scanned bodies in the browser and pull their body systems apart. It is for visualization and learning only, and suits students and teachers of anatomy.

About

What it is: This Space is a 3D viewer for the ct-anatomy-glb dataset. You can orbit models of real CT bodies and pull their body systems apart to look at each one. It is a static web page that runs in the browser with no server. It is for visualization only and not for diagnosis.

Who it suits: It suits students and teachers who want to look at human anatomy in 3D, and web developers who want to see a small static 3D viewer.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
Education | Anatomy students | Explore how body systems sit together | Orbit a body, then pull one system away from the rest
Teaching | Instructors | Show anatomy in a class | Rotate a model on screen while explaining
Web development | Developers | Look at how a viewer is built from plain web files | Open app.js and scene.js

You can skip it if you need a medical tool, since the page is for visualization only and not for diagnosis.

Where to use it: You can use it in these places:

• A browser: open the Space's page on Hugging Face and nothing needs installing.
• Windows, macOS or Linux: get the files with Python and open the page in a web browser.

Use case | Who | What they get back
Anatomy study | Students | A body model to turn around and separate into its systems
Classroom demo | Teachers | A model to rotate and discuss on screen

How to set it up: You need these first to get a local copy:

• Python and pip, to download the files
• A web browser

The online page needs none of this. To get a local copy, follow the steps below.

1. Install the Hugging Face tools.
2. Download the Space's files into a folder.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Open index.html in a web browser.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download codepawl/ct-anatomy-glb-viewer --repo-type space --local-dir ct-anatomy-glb-viewer
cd ct-anatomy-glb-viewer

How to use it: Open the Space in a browser, or open index.html from your downloaded folder. Pick a body, drag to orbit around it and pull its systems apart to look at each one.

Example: You open the viewer and choose one of the CT bodies. You drag to turn it around, then pull its systems apart so each one can be seen on its own.

For newcomers and experts: If you are new to this, open the Space and turn a body around first. Then pull the systems apart one at a time and look at how they fit together.

If you know the field, the page is plain HTML and JavaScript with a scene script, a list of bodies in bodies.json and a vendor folder for libraries. The data comes from TotalSegmentator, from University Hospital Basel, under CC BY 4.0.

Open the viewer page
Choose a CT body
Orbit around the model
Pull the systems apart

Good to know: The viewer is for visualization only. It is not a diagnostic tool and should not guide medical decisions.
