The text at the link Bill provided describes the format of the Visible Human data.  It consists of 3 data sets, photographic images, CT slices and MRI slices.  


Each data set stores each slice as an individual image.  The image format is raw pixels.  The CT and MRI slices use 16-bit grayscale pixels.  The photographs are non-interleaved 8-bit color pixels.  So all the red values come first, then green, and then blue.


For the user's convenience we also provide PNG versions of all the images.  Once you gain access to the ftp server, the PNG versions of the data sets are located in PNG_format subdirectory.
