umm actually Ron ......

one of the applications of the 3D printer and the modeling software is the ability to take the MRI or CT scan data and print it. The more conventional printing mediums are available currently in 256 colors and are amply strong enough to be handled. The largest printers on the market now could print a fully detailed (well at 1200dpi) body in 3 pieces that when glued together you would be hard pressed to see the joints
