No anatomy. This view simply shows the histology
of the underlying grey-level model. This is a 'volume-rendered' image
of the same model embryo as shown in SectionView, but now visualised
as if it were under a dissecting microscope.
The views below show the same model with
landmark anatomical structures highlighted in colour. They are most
useful for gaining an overall mental map of the embryo and for helping
to locate specific structures or regions in relation to these landmark
structures.

This image, and the two below, show 'surface-rendered'
views of selected anatomical components. They do not show the grey-level
data. They are most useful for visualising the 3D relations between
comonents.
