I'm interested in reconstruction of NMR and CAT scan data into
full 3-D renderings as wire frames and as solid objects.
A lot of the previewing would ideally be done on an IMB AT, but we
would eventually want to do a few ray tracings on a cray.

Has anyone had any experience with any graphing packages that could
assist in 3-D reconstructions for the AT?  I've heard about a package
from Ithaca software called "HOOPS 3D" that looks promissing.  Anyone
had any experience with it?
