3-d reconstructions

[Joaquin Soriano]

 

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to implement 3d-reconstructions of neurons. I was thinking to
do so by using free software (Neuron_morpho plugin for image j and
L_measure and Cvapp java programs). Cvapp (downloadable from
http://www.compneuro.org)  is a program aimed  at visualizing
reconstructions.

I'm not able to download this program and make it run on my computer
(I'm using WindowsXP and latest java).

Has anyone recently downloaded this program?, anyone knows how to make
it run?

Any idea other idea or possible solutions?

Thank you very much in advance.

No idea. But we made our own already for 3D reconstruction and
visualization:

You can see some movies of 3D meshes:

Made from pipes, i.e. tubular elements created as a sequence of clicks:

Made from a list of segmented areas, or a 'label' as its called many times:

These were created with the ImageJ_3D_Viewer.jar by Bene Schmid, which
interacts with TrakEM2.

If you are curious, the above are different components of the Drosophila
brain neuropile.
