How does the human body work? What advances have been made in medicine which enable us to understand the human body better? These programs provide a comprehensive answer to both questions in this ten-part series. Filmed in the United States and Great Britain, these programs were all produced in 1995 and contain valuable information for the study of human anatomy and physiology.Each program contains three major elements:
- Live-action video showing the human body in action, often under experimental conditions, putting the theme of each program into context
- Advanced imaging technology is used, including x-rays, radioisotope and ultrasound scans, fiber optics, MRIs, and video of surgery. These techniques provide unparalleled glimpses into the inner workings of the body.
- Three-dimensional computer graphics provide easy-to-understand illustrations of processes and functions which are difficult to see otherwise.
