  From contours to 3D modells in POV Ray

Hi everyone!

I need some help! I've got a stack of 2D images that represents a series

of cross sections through an object. (This is biological data: sections
through animal tissue) I am trying to reconstruct certain structures
from this stack of images. Up to now I have been using a program called
IGL trace to draw contours around these structures in all of the images
and then exporting this information as a VRML object. Then I have to
convert it to POV format. Unfortunately the objects appear to be quite
"chuncky" in both VRML and POVRAY.

Is there some direct way to create a 3d modell (POVRAY) from a series of

contours?

Thanks a lot for any help!
