Abstract of the Disclosure, A system for displaying three-dimensional surface structures according to computer graphics methods extracts a surface definition from a tomographic array of data using interpolation of the data for smooth high resolution images. Interpolation can be performed to a degree where artifact-free images are produced for all viewing orientations. Data-processing capacity and time requirements can be reduced with less interpolation while image quality is maintained for all viewing orientations by inspecting the viewing orientation and appropriately scaling the image.
