STUDIES ON THE METHOD FOR SCIENTIFIC VISUALIZATION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGES OF LIVING CELLS
|
Abstract:
Scientific visualization can be used to deal with processing or processed scientific datum and to display them on the screen so as to analyze and process these images interactively by image processing and computer graphics technique. The article concerned in the program of scientific visuliza-tion of three-dimensional images of living rat pancreatic β cells by three-dimensional deconvolution imag-ing microscopy. Two visualization algorithms were studied and used to process the three-dimensional deconvolved images of rat pancreatic β cells in which granules was labeled by acridine orange. Scientific visualization results reveal some missed important information when only the two-dimensional slice images of the whole three-dimensional image were investigated, such as the possible trend of granules' release and the whole space distribution of granules.
