We present a technique for the illustrative rendering of 3D line data at interactive frame
rates. We create depth-dependent halos around lines to emphasize tight line bundles while …

Recent advances in data acquisition produce volume data of very high resolution and large
size, such as terabyte-sized microscopy volumes. These data often contain many fine and …

Neurobiology investigates how anatomical and physiological relationships in the nervous
system mediate behavior. Molecular genetic techniques, applied to species such as the …

Rendering large numbers of dense line bundles in three dimensions is a common need for
many visualization techniques, including streamlines and fiber tractography. Unfortunately …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the human brain, coupled with tractography techniques,
enable the extraction of large-collections of three-dimensional tract pathways per subject …

One of the major goals in biomedical image processing is accurate segmentation of
networks embedded in volumetric data sets. Biological networks are composed of a …

We present a process to automatically generate three-dimensional mesh representations of
the complex, arborized cell membrane surface of cortical neurons (the principal information …

We present a general high‐performance technique for ray tracing generalized tube
primitives. Our technique efficiently supports tube primitives with fixed and varying radii …

Large datasets typically contain coarse features comprised of finer sub-features. Even if the
shapes of the small structures are evident in a 3D display, the aggregate shapes they …

In this paper, we will review a novel microscopy modality called Knife-Edge Scanning
Microscopy (KESM) that we have developed over the past twelve years (since 1999) and …
