In addition to the 3D reconstructions made with WinSurf we have started to produce volumetric models using Amira.
These models can be used to generate surface renditions similar to those made with WinSurf and they can also produce volumetric views of the embryo.
For further details of Amira visit the TGS website.
On the left is a small animation of a volumetric model of embryo 7801. Click on the links below to view some surface reconstructions generated from this model. |

A model of the epiblast (yellow) and hypoblast (purple) of the embryonic disc. The amnion and umbilical vesicle are show partially transparent. | ||
As #1 but with the amnion and umbilical vesicle removed | ||
Another version of #1 with the embryonic disc in green and the fetal membranes in yellow/orange | ||
As #3 but just showing the disc and connecting stalk |
