title: Computer 3-dimensional reconstruction of intraglandular lymph vessels and ductal systems of the human submandibular gland.
abstract: Computer three-dimensional reconstruction of serial sections is currently an active area of research. In this paper we combine computer graphics, image processing and biomedical techniques to reconstruct a stereo model of intraglandular lymphatic vessels, veins, arteries and ducts from serial microsections of the human submandibular gland.
