Hello

I will have cross-sectional images of an object from two different sources. I want to create a program which will be able to compile these two image stacks into a 3D model. Both images will be in either tiff or jpeg formats and monochrome and I will know the fixed distance between each image (although these may not be the same).

What programming language would be best to use?

I'm a newbie but have a fair bit of time to learn the languages and make a program.

Cheers

Well I would say that the language depends on what format you want the output in and what you want to do with the data.

For example this seems like the kind of thing one would find in MatLab or Mathematica. This is great if you are writing medical imaging software that will sell for several thousand dollars a copy -- or a college research project.

You CAN write something like this in most languages. Since this seems like a pretty processing intensive application then I would think that C/C++ would be the way to go.

Personally if I was doing such a thing I would probably work in mathematica, but that is just me.
