I am looking for software to reconstruct a 3-dimensional object from a series of 2-dimensional slices. The density of data in a slice plane is much higher than that orthogonal to the slice planes. It must be possible to obtain coordinate lists of arbitrary slices of the reconstructed 3D object. I am using a Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scanner to get tomographic images of the human orbit (the eyeball, muscles, etc), and want to reconstruct the orbital geometry from the series of slices. In order to combine the data of several subjects, I need to reconstruct each separately, normalize in size and orientation, and then re-slice. These normalized slices can, in a way, be averaged. Does anyone know of such software that runs under UNIX?
