In Sun Microsystems' Solaris computer operating system, disk partitions are sometimes known as slices. This is a conceptual reference to the slicing of a cake into several pieces.

In mathematics, the slice genus of a smooth knot K in S3 (sometimes called its Murasugi genus or 4-ball genus) is the least integer g such that K is the boundary of a connected, orientable 2-manifold S of genus g embedded in the 4-ball D4 bounded by S3.

Slice of life is a theatrical term that refers to a naturalistic representation of real life, sometimes used as an adjective, as in, "a play with 'slice of life' dialogue." The term originated in 1890–95 as a translation from the French phrase tranche de vie, credited to the French playwright Jean Jullien (1854–1919).

Fish cake or fish slice is a commonly cooked food in southern China] and [[overseas Chinese communities. The fillet is made of fish that has been finely pulverized.

Slice sampling is a type of Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm used to draw pseudo-random samples from a statistical distribution. The method is based on the observation that to sample a random variable one can sample uniformly from the region under the graph of its density function.

Abstract: Abstract Scatter correction is an important factor in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Many scatter correction techniques, such as multiple-window subtraction and intrinsic modeling with iterative algorithms, have been under study for many years. Previously, the authors developed an efficient slice-to-slice blurring technique to model attenuation and system geometric response in a projector/backprojector pair, which was used in an ML-EM algorithm to reconstruct SPECT data. This paper proposes a projector/backprojector that models the three-dimensional (3-D) first-order scat...

Abstract: An automated method for the segmentation of thrombus in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) from CTA data is presented. Three segmentation schemes, inspired by Active Shape Model (ASM) segmentation, were investigated. (1) The original ASM scheme as proposed by Cootes and Taylor [1], applied to sequential slices, using the contour obtained in one slice as the initial contour in the adjacent slice. (2) A similar approach, steered by profile greyvalue correlation with adjacent slices rather than by correlation with profiles from the training data and (3) as in (2), with additional attraction to near...

Abstract: Abstract Use of a single-slice (2D) display for observer studies may bias results acid reduce the studies' clinical generalizability. Human observers perform better at the task of lesion detection with 3D-processed images than they do with 2D-processed images when the images are presented using a 2D display. However, 3D-processing techniques incorporate information from out-of-plane or adjacent slices into an image and thus provide more information to the observer than does a similar 2D-processing method. Observer performance with 2D-processing methods may improve if the adjacent-slice inform...

Abstract: Abstract One of the main challenges with magnetic resonance (MR) cardiac image acquisition is to account for cardiac motion due to respiration. A popular technique to reduce respiratory motion is to perform a multi-slice acquisition in which a patient holds their breath multiple times during the scan. This paper explores the feasibility of using rigid slice-to-volume registration to correct for misalignments of slice stacks in such images due to differing breath-hold positions. The experimental results indicate that slice-to-volume registration is sufficiently accurate and robust to compensat...
