Atlantic Cod Fish Swim Bladder and Otoliths 0001

3D Volume Rendering Technique (VRT) reconstruction from CT scans of the swim bladder and otoliths of an Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua). The swim bladder is a gas filled organ that facilitates buoyancy control while the otoliths are used to sense gravity and linear acceleration.
