I have been working with images in a plane x and y coordinates.
Thanks to members of this forum I have successfully been able to locate
objects in that plane and do calculations related to it.

Now I am interested in looking in the z direction.

I have as an example 300 images which are slices through a head from a CT.
Each slice is a x,y plane and there are  objects to be investigated in each
plane like a slice through the brain.

The same object can then exist in several slices with variations.
Each slice is interesting but it would be even more interesting to be able
to put the x,y planes together and be able to look in the z direction and
also be able to rotate the 3D object.

Then make slices through the cube from various angles.

Is there a tool available in J to do this already?

I have seen various 3D demos but I am not sure if they have been using
something like 300 BMP files for input.

I do have a Dicom viewer that can look at the images in the way I am
describing here above and there are a number of tools available to do parts
of what I want.
They are all lacking what I have in J in the form of giving a programming
access to the information I am looking at to combine it with other things of
interest.
