		<description><![CDATA[Dear Miss Weird Scientist,

It didn&#039;t took long, a couple of minutes perhaps. But it did require a lot of imagination though!
Should your readers be interested, I can show a few more surprising images and perhaps videos as well.

Enjoy!

		<description><![CDATA[From what I read, it would seem to be really time consuming to create the image.  This description was used on the Science journal website when the winners were announced (http://www.sciencemag.org/sciext/vis2007/):

&quot;Normally, CT renderings meld slices together into smooth surfaces, but, in what he terms the &#039;Rainbow Technique,&#039; Fung instead broke them apart, creating a topographical map of the airspaces described by the contour lines of individual slices, and colored according to the density of the tissues that border them.  Fung digitally removed the bones, soft tissue, and fat from the rendering to create a solid &quot;cast&quot; of the sinuses&#039; air envelope.&quot;

It is a really cool picture though.  Initially, I thought it was a depiction of a woman&#039;s reproductive organs.  I can also see it looking fabulous simply on someone&#039;s wall as a piece of artwork.  Mind you, it won&#039;t exactly complement my Victorian decor. :p]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What a neat picture, I woul have never thought that it was a nose. It looks like a piece of art. It is so amazing what technology can do now. Looking at the picture I can&#039;t even tell anything about the nose. I bet this was very time consuming to creat such an image. I don&#039;t know much about health technology, but I appreciate when something new comes about.]]></description>
