How Analyze was Used
“The 3D volume images, reconstructed with a modified Feldkamp’s filtered backprojection algorithm were displayed with a cubic voxel of 17 μm and the radiopacity of each voxel was represented by a 16-bit gray-scale value. Image analysis was then performed with the Analyze™ software package.”
