The presentation of three-dimensional reconstructions from serial sections. 1976

E G Jordan, and A M Saunders

A simple and effective way is described for showing particular structures in serial sections. By using waterproof inks and acetate sheets supported on a frame immersed in water and illuminated from beneath, the information from up to sixty sections can be easily visualized. This technique is particularly useful for displaying enclosed structures and by a suitable choice of colours enables special emphasis to be given to selected components. The information can be recorded simply through stereo photography.
