Abstract

Images of medical interest are normally planar representations of the object under consideration, which of course has three spatial dimensions. These images are either projections or tomographic slices. From these an approximation to the three-dimensional original can be constructed in the mind of the observer and so certain morphological characteristics and spatial relations of different tissues can be understood (Waters and Heiss, 1986). In order to facilitate this complex mental process and to allow a permanent reproducible record to be available, a reflection holography arrangement was developed to construct three-dimensional medical images. The data used were obtained from contiguous nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tomographic images of the brain.
