Noninvasive three-dimensional computer imaging of matrix-filled fossil skulls by high-resolution computed tomography.

G C Conroy, M W Vannier.   

Abstract

A noninvasive computer imaging technique allows three-dimensional images of fossil skulls to be generated from two-dimensional serial computerized tomographic scan data. The computer programs can "dissect" the skull in different planes by making portions of it and any obstructing matrix transparent in order to reveal intracranial morphology. The computer image is geometrically precise so that linear distances, angles, areas, volumes, and evaluations of symmetry can be determined.
