Abstract
A method is presented whereby serial sections can be stored by computer in a form in which they are available for a variety of mathematical manipulations. One important application is the representation of the original object as a projection into 2 dimensions. The sections, or any selected parts of them, can be displayed in the correct mutual positions as seen from any desired angle. In an appendix a technique is described for large-scale production of serial sections through brachiopods [Uncinulus pila] and other objects of similar size.
