BodyParts3D is a dictionary-type database for anatomy in which shapes and positions of body parts are represented by 3D human models. This directory contains the models labeled with anatomical terms in BodyParts3D.
| Data name | README |
| Description of data contents | HTML file to describe "BodyParts3D" data. |
| File | README_e.html (English) |
| Data name | Release note (Rel. 3.0) |
| Description of data contents | HTML file that describes main update points since the previous release (Rel. 2.0, 2010/8/16) |
| File | release_3.0_e.html (English) |
| Data name | Table of 3D organ model IDs and organ names |
| Description of data contents |
List of downloadable 3D organ models in a tab-delimited text file format, describing the correspondence between 3D organ model IDs and organ names |
| File | parts_list_e.txt (49KB) |
| Data item | Description |
|---|---|
| id | ID of the corresponding FMA (Foundational Model of Anatomy), starting with "FMA". If a corresponding concept is not found in the FMA, a BodyParts3D's original ID that begins with "BP" is assigned. |
| en | English name. Basically, a preferred name of FMA is assigned. |
| Data name | Data describing the inclusion relations between two organs |
| Description of data contents |
File of data describing the inclusion relations between two organs of the downloadable 3D organ models. This is the conventional type hierarchy shown at the "Tree" tab of "BP3D Viewer" (http://lifesciencedb.jp/bp3d). |
| File | conventional_part_of.txt (137KB) |
| Data item | Description |
|---|---|
| id | Organ ID |
| name | English name of the organ in the first column |
| part id | ID of an organ that is part of the organ in the first and second columns |
| part name | English name of the organ in the third column (part id) |
| Data name | Data describing the definition of composite organs |
| Description of data contents |
In BodyParts3D, only atomic organs are constructed as polygon meshes. Composite organs defined as a sum of atomic ones are not provided in the form of the meshes. This file describes which atomic body parts constitute each composite organ according to the "conventional" inclusion relations described above. |
| File | composite_parts.txt (721KB) |
| Data item | Description |
|---|---|
| composite id | Composite organID |
| composite name | English name of the organ in the first column |
| primitive id | ID of an atomic organ that constitutes the organ in the first and second columns |
| primitive name | English name of the organ in the third column (primitive id) |
| Data name | Organ ID-specific polygon mesh data 1 (Polygon reduction rate = 95.0%) |
| Description of data contents |
BodyParts3D phase-2 or 3 3D organ model data with the polygon reduction rate of 95%. The zip-compressed download files contain multiple files of organ ID-specific polygon data in the Wavefront OBJ format. The polygon data file is named as "organ ID" of the 3D organ models followed by the extension ".obj". |
| File | BodyParts3D_3.0_obj_95.zip (521MB) |
| Data name | Organ ID-specific polygon mesh data 2 (Polygon reduction rate = 99.0%) |
| Description of data contents |
BodyParts3D phase-2 or 3 3D organ model data with the polygon reduction rate of 99%. The zip-compressed download files contain multiple files of organ ID-specific polygon data in the Wavefront OBJ format. The polygon data file is named as "organ ID" of the 3D organ models followed by the extension ".obj". |
| File | BodyParts3D_3.0_obj_99.zip (127MB) |
A polygon mesh with the reduction rate of 95% is more precise than that with 99% because 95% has five times more polygons (triangles) than 99%.
