bioView3D volume renderer is an open source and cross-platform application intended for biologists to visualize EM, Confocal, etc. 3D imagery. It runs on Windows, MacOS X and Linux. It's based on OpenGL and will run smooth on modern-fast hardware. bioView3D supports popular 3D stack formats like Fluoview, Zeiss LSM, TIFF, BioRad PIC, etc.

bioView3D has all the necessary tools embedded - image interpolation and channel remapping. The model is contructed using meta-data so it's physically accurate. It's also possible to export screen into an image file.
