The digital structure of 3D discrete volumes induces many difficulties in the exploitation and study of these objects due to the huge volume of data stored. The general idea to solve those problems is to transform the discrete surfaces of those volumes into polygonal surfaces in a reversible way (the original object can be retrieved from the polygonal surface). The aim of this article is to present a first reversible and topologically correct solution using both Marching Cubes and digital plane segmentation processes.
