Computer graphic three-dimensional reconstruction of normal human embryo morphogenesis.

Three-dimensional computer graphic reconstructions of four human embryos at Carnegie stages 11 to 23 portray the relationships and dimensions of individual organ systems. This paper illustrates the cranial, neural, pharyngeal, gut, vascular and nephric architecture in these developing embryos. This technology can be applied to in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry to map zones and times of developmental gene activity.

Fiducial points for three-dimensional computer-assisted reconstruction of serial light microscopic sections of umbilical cord.

Fascicles of human sural (peripheral sensory) nerve were used as external fiducial points (FP) for accurate registration of serial light microscopic sections in three-dimensional reconstruction of human umbilical cord. This paper describes a method for embedding the FPs within the paraffin wax block simultaneously with the specimen to be sectioned. Using a new design of embedding box, the FPs are embedded close to the specimen and are transferred to the slides as part of the tissue sections. Three to four FPs were used to align and scale the serial tissue sections for digitization and computerized reconstruction, using a commercially available software program on IBM-compatible 80386 hardware. A three-dimensional solid surface graphic model of a segment of human umbilical cord was generated.
