Abstract

An interactive computer graphic system has been developed for 3-D reconstruction of stained serial sections. The system has been used for 3-D reconstruction of portions of mouse lung containing melanoma nodules. A stereoscopic color picture of a wire model of the reconstructed object is produced. The volume, surface area, and sphericity index of structures such as tumor nodules can be computed.
