3D data presentation

Fri, 11/29/2013 - 04:16 am

I have a set of 2D data presented in false color graphs. Now I want to creat a 3D box, and put these 2D data into the 3D box layer by layer. Of course I want to replace or delete any one layer if I don't want it, and when I want to view any layer, I can get it out based on the 3D box.
Do you guys have any idea how to write a macro or procedure like that?
Thanks!

You could pack your 2D data set into a single 3D wave where each layer contains a 2D matrix. You then have the option of displaying any layer of the 3D wave using, e.g.,

NewImage my3Dwave
ModifyImage my3Dwave plane=4

You also have the additional options of using the 3D Wave display:
Analysis Menu->Packages->Image Processing
followed by:
Image Menu->3D Wave Display

If you want to display any orthogonal slice of the 3D wave you can use Gizmo. See, for example, File Menu->Example Experiments->Visualization->VolumeSlicerDemo.

I hope this helps,
