D4 on the major comb. Its drum rings at 308.9 Hz.
A CT, MRI or microscope scan is a volume: a stack of slices, each a grid of numbers saying how dense or bright the object is there.

Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 308.9 Hz, 88 cents sharp of D4, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
A CT, MRI or microscope scan is a volume: a stack of slices, each a grid of numbers saying how dense or bright the object is there. Each little block is a voxel. Slices are often farther apart than the pixels in them, so every voxel is placed at its real size.
The window picks which values show: below it is treated as air, and the colors run from its bottom to its top. Bone shows the densest parts, Soft tissue the range below them, Full range everything but the air (in a medical CT, in Hounsfield units: water 0, air -1000). Tap to step through them, or set your own. Drag to move the cut, or show one thin slice. Maximum intensity shows the brightest value along each line, as radiologists view blood vessels.
