How Analyze was Used
“Obvious distortion exists in the arrangements of the right temporal and basioccipital bones. In order to correct their placement and restore the cranial base, we first digitally separated these portions from one another by removing the adhesive bond based on the micro-CT data using the software Analyze 8.1…. Polygon surface models of these separated portions were then extracted from the volume data by the marching cube routine in Analyze 8.1.”
