Iowa State University engineers Eliot Winer, left, and James Oliver have developed technology that converts 2-D medical scans into detailed 3-D images that can be used to plan a surgery or teach a lesson in anatomy. They worked with Thom Lobe, a pediatric surgeon based at Blank Children's Hospital in Des Moines, to establish a company, BodyViz.com, to market and sell the technology.
