3D meets Anatomy – The future starts now!
In September 2024, our HiD (HistoDigital) team had the privilege of sponsoring the trilateral meeting of the German, Austrian and Swiss Anatomical Societies in Graz. An inspiring exchange with experts dedicated to the advancement of anatomy education and a perfect stage to showcase the transformative power of 3D reconstructions.
We showed how 3D digital reconstructions based on histological slides are revolutionizing the understanding of anatomy. The response to our demonstrations was particularly impressive:
- Virtual slides - for precise insights.
- Volume renderings - thanks to the latest physically based rendering techniques in the Chimaera SDK.
- Virtual reality - immersive experiences that bring science to life.
A highlight was the use of the Apple Vision Pro VR headset (provided by Siemens Healthineers) – a mind-blowing experience that shows how far digital anatomy has come. Siemens Healthineers plays a leading role in the development of realistic visualizations of medical image data, and HiD was able to show at the congress that reconstructed histological image data is another exciting use case!

Who we are
HiD (HistoDigital) was founded in 2024 by Simone Gaffling, Michael Scholz and Chimaera GmbH. Our mission is to redefine the boundaries of digital anatomy and create high quality 3D reconstructions for research, teaching and clinical applications.
We look forward to shaping the future of anatomy education and research with our technology – and to setting new standards together with our partners.
