Ok, I'm pretty new to this but here is my second print. I reconstructed by brain from a fairly hires MRI scan. Some volume image processing and marching cubes to generate the input obj file.
FWIW

Pretty cool. What did you use for the processing?

Simplify 3d has an image converter. I tried it and it works pretty well !

Huh! That turned out amazingly well! I'll have to try that image converter one of these days.
(I would quote the old commercial about "This is your brain....This is your brain on M2." but it was probably before your time.)

The S3D height map generator does not take multiple MRI scan volume data and perform marching cubes on it.

Oh I remember the "this is your brain commercials..." As for the SW, I used Brainvox for skull stripping,the tal_mcubes command line tool that come with it for isosurface extraction and a little touchup with MeshLab. Printed as two pieces to avoid the serious overhang and the need for supports.

Just saw this on Thingiverse:

You should turn your own brain into a bottle opener.
