=====================
Modern optical microscopy provides powerful tools for studying
biological samples varying from sub-cellular structures to tissues. Transforming
complex, multidimensional microscopy data sets into the actual presentation for
use in lectures, web sites, or published materials requires not only knowledge
about digital image acquisition and image processing but also familiarity with
visualization techniques. Attendees will learn various approaches to
multidimensional data visualization of microscopy images and will
see examples of software tools
available for these tasks.
Specifically, the workshop will
address the following topics:
- Sources of 3-D microscopy datasets. Optical
resolution of conventional and confocal microscopes
- 3-D reconstruction
- 3-D visualization via surface
or/and volume rendering
- 3-D presentation techniques
- Use of animations for 3-D
visualization
- Beyond 3-D: visualization of
spectral and time lapse images
- Presentation of 3-D visualizations
in printed materials, electronic presentations, and electronic supplementary materials
submitted to journals
This seminar requires
that attendees use a Java-enabled browser with a high bandwidth connection. Audio is via telephone. Long distance toll charges may
apply.
