Abstract
This paper describes a new method for data representation and visualization in four dimensions (three dimensions plus time). Sequential volumes, exhibiting morphological activity, are acquired non-invasively with a confocal scanning laser microscope, where each data set corresponds to a time sample. A pipelined processing includes packing of volumes and specific volume rendering techniques. Subsequent processing in HIS (hue, intensity, saturation)l colour space combines functional, packed images with shaded three-dimensional views. As a result, even subtle changes in morphology become visible and computational time is saved. Experimental findings obtained from investigations of synaptic plasticity in cultured retinal tissue are reported.
