3D Boundary Reconstruction of Mouse Brain Cells

Abstract

This paper reports our 3D reconstruction work of mouse brain cells from a confocal image stack. Gradients at volumetric points are used for boundary surface extraction and structure visualization from 3D volumetric confocal microscopic images. We present a method to automatically evaluate the suitability of gradients for 3D boundary identification. The approach developed is applied for 3D reconstruction of mouse brain cells from confocal image stack
