The Revolutionary Way for You to Visualize Cystic Fibrosis Microbes

Development of the 3D visual model

The steps of mapping for the research scientists involved:

  • “CAT scans to generate modes of human lungs
  • Computerized 3-D models of a lung
  • Remove outer skin intensity of the lung
  • Computerization data applied to mapped model
  • Change transparency of the 3-D model
  • Virtually slice the lung model
  • Label each slice for placement position
  • Plot data on 3D lung model to visualize spatial interactions and variations”
