Dear Eitan and list,
 
As I understand it the convicted felon whose body was used in the Visual
Human Project had voluntarily left his remains to medical science as do
thousands of people every year. Every body left to medical science is
effectively destroyed in use training doctors and such like, so the case of
the Visual Human Project is no different.
 
regards,
Richard
