There is code by Doug Gehringer to do this at
http://www.j3d.org/tutorials/quick_fix/volume.html
and there is an applet version as well.

> Hi all:
>
> I'm wondering if Java3D has the capabilities to do volume visualization as
> in the context of medical imagry where you have a volume sampled in
> X,Y,Z and want to show physical properties (i.e. tissue density) in various
> colors and levels of opacity in 3D with some form of interpolation between
> sample points.
>
> I know you can do shapes and surfaces, and I suspect you can do planar
> slices through the volume by using a texture on a plane, but I'm not sure
> how you would handle a spatially sampled volume.
>
> Could someone direct me to the appropriate API class(es) or possibly some
> code fragments?
>
> Thanks, Dave J.
