(Shell) Volume Calculation
The (shell) volume is defined as the difference between the volume defined by the outer
surface (of the shell geometry) and the volume defined by the inner surface (of the shell
geometry).
(Shell) Niche presentation
The niche presentation allows the visualization of slices and the shell contour in one image.
The presentation gives a 3D overview about the orientation of the slices and the shell contour.
