This poster presents efforts to digitize skeletal specimens from the National Museum of Health and Medicine in collaboration with the Virtual Curation Laboratory at Virginia Commonwealth University. Three-dimensional (3D) digitization methods of specimens include surface scanning, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), and computed tomography (CT).

This poster was presented at the 46th Annual North American Meeting of the Paleopathology Association in Cleveland, Ohio, March 2019.
