“…Three dimensional images of CAT scans and MRI images and even fossil cephalopods can be recorded on holographs with sufficient accuracy for measurement of object relationships (136)(137)(138). Physical models, accurate in three-dimensions, can even be computer-generated (139).…”

Accuracy of paleontologic perspectives, understanding disease states, hypothesis formation, and technology form the basis for this review. Moodie's (1) effort, in isolation, to attribute diagnoses to paleontologic observations were originally met with skepticism (Don Baird, personal and graphic communication) and have not stood the test of time (2, 3). Familarization with the technology should allow innovative approaches to mainstream paleontologic questions. Collaborative efforts should allow avoidance of some of the pitfalls of that technology. When all parties to such collaboration must convince each other of the appropriateness of their "pronouncements," confidence is generated in the conclusions..

“…To grasp three-dimensional (3-D) structures in biological material, many techniques for the display of reconstructed images have been reported: making a model using clay or plastic sheets, tracing the outlines of selected features in a series of sections to form a spatial representation of the object by hand or by computer (Johnson & Capowski, 1983), or computer graphics derived from recorded data of each section to give a solid model (Sato et al, 1986). Data for 3-D reconstruction are usually obtained only from a series of histological sections because the complicated 3-D information of the specimen cannot be analysed by any other technique.…”

SUMMARY We have developed a new confocal laser scanning microscope equipped with two galvanometer mirrors which swing the laser beam. With this set up we can observe large and fragile specimens. Using a focused laser beam as light source to minimize ‘flare’ and a pinhole in front of a photodetector to eliminate out‐of‐focus data, we could obtain a depth‐discriminated fluorescence image. The scanning apparatus of our system can eliminate mechanical vibration and sweep widely, to obtain images at a low magnification. A thinly sectioned image with high resolution and high contrast could be obtained optically from an in situ thick specimen. We have called this technique ‘microscopic tomography’. Combining the laser scanning microscope with the colour image analyser generated semi‐automatically a three‐dimensional picture of the biological material with information on its interior.
