The project offers\u00a0<em>selected<\/em>\u00a0images from NLM&#8217;s atlas collection, not the entire books, with an emphasis on images and not texts. Atlases and images are selected primarily for their historical and artistic significance, with priority placed upon the earliest and\/or the best edition of a work in NLM&#8217;s possession.<\/p>\n<p>The History of Medicine Division of the National Library of Medicine has a rich collection of illustrated anatomical atlases dating from the 15th to the 20th century. The Historical Anatomies on the Web Project has been designed to broaden access to this collection by providing high-resolution downloadable scans of selected important images from the atlases. Atlases and images have been chosen for their historical and artistic significance by the project&#8217;s content coordinator, Michael North. Important images may be omitted if the atlas is damaged or fragile, or if the work is bound in such a way as to impede high quality scanning. A priority has been placed upon scanning the earliest and\/or the best edition of a work in Library&#8217;s possession. The scans generally omit text.<\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_1909\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.revistahcsm.coc.fiocruz.br\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Atlas-Iran-post.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1909\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1909  \" style=\"margin: 3px;\" alt=\"Atlas Iran post\" src=\"http:\/\/www.revistahcsm.coc.fiocruz.br\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Atlas-Iran-post.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/revistahcsm.coc.fiocruz.br\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Atlas-Iran-post.jpg 300w, https:\/\/revistahcsm.coc.fiocruz.br\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Atlas-Iran-post-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1909\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Author: Mansur ibn Ilyas (fl. ca. 1390).<br \/>Title: Tashrih-i badan-i insan.
