Murat,

I've done lots of volume rendering with medical images including MR
and CT.  I presume you have the slices in DICOM format.  The way I do
it, I put the data part of the images in one file, and then compose a
header suitable for a dx file in another (file.dx, file.bin). David
Reddy (www.radio-logic.com) has a converter (InterFormat) from DICOM
to dx.  Then when you read the images in with the import module, you
then have to "stack" the set using the "Stack" function. Then
everything works as usual in dx which. by the way, has a volume
renderer based on an algorithm called "Alligator" which is somewhat
better than "Marching Cubes" - see

I hope this helps.
