Detailed Description

a linked list containing volumes

A Vista volume set is used to represent three-dimensional volumetric objects in 3D images in a three-dimensional run-length encoding.

A volume set in memory is referred to by the C pointer type Volumes. In data files it is identified by the type name volumes, and in memory, by the VRepnKind code VolumesRepn. Since it is a standard object type with built-in support in the Vista library, volume sets can be read from data files, written to data files, and manipulated as part of attribute lists by routines such as VReadFile(3Vi), VWriteFile(3Vi), and VGetAttr(3Vi).

A single volume, a member of a volume set, is referred to by the C pointer type Volume.
