The present invention provides a method for viewing three-dimensional data sets. As applied to a three-dimension data set obtained by OCT techniques, a plane at a particular angle is established within the data set, and voxels on either side of the plane may be emphasized relative to other voxels, for example, by increasing the transparency or decreasing the intensity of surrounding voxels. The emphasized voxels may then form a flat slice or slab within the data set that, by analogy with the slit-lamp, may be considered a "virtual slit" that highlights a section of the data set. The dimmer, non-emphasized surrounding voxels allow the section to be viewed in context. As in the slit-lamp, the method of the present invention may place the slit position, width and angle under the observer's control, which can be varied to highlight particular features of interest.
