The aim of this study was to three-dimensional reconstruction
of cervical part of the spinal cord of a thoroughbred
horse using its histological sections with the help of 3d reconstruction
module of stereo investigator. Scanned images
using Office flatbed scanner were opened as image stacks in
stereo investigator. Considering real measurements of the
segments, borders of the gray and white matter and central
canal were drawn by planimetric methods. This procedure
was performed on all consecutive sections. All drawn lines of
segments were matched to each other using mentioned software.
Finally, three-dimensional reconstruction of segments
was obtained using 3D reconstruction module. Surface area,
cross-sectional area and volume of the segments were calculated
by Neurolucida explorer software. Obtained results
from 3D models were given in tabular form. It is thought that
obtained three-dimensional models possessed real measurements
of the segments contribute to anatomy of region of
interest, can be used as digital education materials and obtaining
solid materials exporting three-dimensional models
to 3D printers improve the quality of education and training
in anatomy.
