Abstract

A low-cost personal-computer-based reconstruction system was described. The components were an IBM PC/AT-386 and the AutoCAD program, with AutoShade and AutoFlix. Its efficiency was demonstrated by reconstructing the 3-D surface of given serial slides in rat brain and human thalamus. Stereopairs were possible. Animation practicability facilitates video documentation and education purposes. (5 pictures)
