The term 3D visualisation refers to the imaging of two-dimensional volumetric data (>50GB) obtained by microscopic methods (mainly fluorescence microscopy) in all three dimensions (x, y, z) using suitable analytical software. To visualize 3D (or 4D) images, high-end algorithms are used to render the volume of the analyzed objects. 3D visualization software allows:
-
different ways of displaying the volume and surface of objects obtained after 3D reconstruction
-
display of individual optical slices of 3D data
-
display of 3D cross-sections of objects diagonally, horizontally and vertically and many more
