That's amazing! You should've scaled it to 110% and then shown it to your family xD

They should let you have the files. You paid... dearly for them.

Love the idea, I always thought of doing the same with my skull since I worked with MRI files and could probably export the file. However I never did an MRI of my head.

Where is my mind....

Wow. It's insane seeing the "you" next to you.

Would be fun to print the brain of a friend, and compare folds 🧠🧠

Oh dude that's awesome!
I work with MRI files all the time, I can't believe I never thought this was something you could do with them.
