Description:
Registration, segmentation, 3D reconstruction, and visualization aspects of modeling and rendering for neuroscience, embryology, radiology, and surgical planning are illustrated using massively parallel resources in a networked environment.
Two registration techniques are demonstrated: interactive registration through a digital blink comparator and automatic registration through minimization. The digital blink comparator technique is used to register sections of a neuronal dendrite from transmission electron microscopy, and to register pre- and post-contrast midsaggital MRI head scans. Minimization is used to register serial sections of on embryo from light microscopy.
