Confocal Microscopy optical sectioning <> electronic reconstruction
23
Axial optical sectioning of the object is possible in two ways. Either by - direct acquisition of x/z- or y/z-optical cross sections, or - calculation of vertical optical sections using the normal x/y-image stack (as shown here).
24
Rotation and volume rendering. Rotation of the image stack and projection into one plane allows viewing the object from different angles.
25
Stereoscopic imaging. The combination of a left and a right image either as - stereo pairs or - red/green anaglyphs allows easy visualisation of 3D-structures! Use red/green glasses for stereoscopic viewing of this red/green anaglyph.
