Patient Visualizes Own Medical Scans With Claude Code, Bypassing Expensive Clinical Software

A Reddit user leveraged Claude Code and Three.js to transform raw CBCT and MRI data into an interactive 3D skull visualization, complete with anatomical overlays for muscles and skeletal structures, because access to medical scan data meant nothing without software capable of rendering it. The patient, who had received diagnostic imaging reports alongside raw DICOM files but lacked clinical visualization tools, turned to Claude Code to build a custom viewer that reconstructed his own anatomy.
