Hi ImageJ group,

Could anyone give me some hint if there is a plugin that can calculate
the surface area of a 3D object?

Say, I have extracted the brain from a head, and then I set brain to 255
and the rest to 0 for form a binary image volume.  I would like to know
the brain surface area from this image.  Is there a plugin for this
purpose?   If not, any relevant papers?

Thanks in advance,

James
