  • Title: Computer reconstruction of serial sections.
    Author: Wong YM, Thompson RP, Cobb L, Fitzharris TP.
    Journal: Comput Biomed Res; 1983 Dec; 16(6):580-6. PubMed ID: 6360524.
    Abstract:
    A computer graphics system is described which reconstructs three-dimensional images from serial sectional data. Microscopic sectional tracings are first digitized and coded with a microcomputer (APPLE II-Plus). The data are transferred to a main frame facility for reconstruction and the final result is displayed on a high-resolution color monitor (Hewlett-Packard 9845C). Depth cueing of the image is enhanced by edge ribboning and area filling. The system is very simple to operate and yet flexible enough to allow selective portions of the tissue sample to be reconstructed and displayed in various orientations.
