Abstract
A stereoscopic display and dissection method of brain tissue is developed for the easy understanding of its anatomical domains with their relative positions and dissection surfaces. A set of transverse section frame lines obtained from photos of rat brain slices is composed into a three dimensional image. It is viewed as a three dimensional image by adopting stereoscopic view method for giving a depth of synthesized image of rat brain, making out two different images taking into account a human binocular parallax. A dissection part is given in a plane and by polygon using a mouse device and displayed stereoscopically. Furthermore, using a operational knife graphically synthesized with three dimensional position given by a mouse device, a dissection part is obtained with its stereoscopic view making clear a trace of its blade of a simulated knife.
