How to extrapolate the gaps between multiple 2D scans in a 3D scan

I have 10 2D scans that I plotted in 3D but the problem with the 3D scan is that there are gaps in between the 2Ds. Please, how do I extrapolate between these gaps?

Hi Akeem,

I am currently trying to extract the gaps between about 50 2D scans, how were you able to solve this?

I used:

surf - Surface plot

This MATLAB function creates a three-dimensional surface plot, which is a three-dimensional surface that has solid edge colors and solid face colors.

As per my understanding of your question, you want to create a 3D image with your existing 2D scans, for that please refer the slice function.

Additionally you can refer these related threads as well:
