Notes:
A method is described that allows a three-dimensional object to be reconstructed from micrographs of serial sections by means of computer graphics. The reconstructed object, which can be rotated three-dimensionally, is displayed on a colour visual display unit, and the object is shaded in order to provide an illusion of a three-dimensional structure. Moreover, the technique makes it possible to observe an inner structure as seen through an outer one.
