[3dem] VolRover volume segmentation

[Niels Volkmann]

Hi David,

you may also want to give our 3D watershed segmentation program a try. 
We use it routinely to segment single particle reconstructions of 
varying degrees of resolution and symmetry with very satisfying results. 
You can download it from our coan.burnham.org website under the CoDiv links.

Cheers,
Niels
