In many fields of biology and medicine there is a pressing need for quantitative descriptions of biological structures at a resolution of micrometers. This need is currently met best by three-dimensional reconstruction from serial sections. The preliminary steps in threedimensional reconstruction in

A software package is described that is designed to simplify the collection, storage, and processing of data to be used for three-dimensional reconstruction from serial sections. The package, called MORPHO, consists of four independent programs, all written in FOR-TRAN, running under CP/M, and calle
A FORTRAN program, called AUTOSCAN, is described. This program permits the collection of photomicrographic data from serial sections to be semiautomated. In essence the user defines a box around a microscopic field of interest. Then the program drives the stage incrementally in the x and y direction
