reslice

Cut once more

To reslice is to slice again or differently.

In cooking, you might reslice bread that was cut too thick.

In medical imaging, reslice refers to reconstructing scan data along a different plane—taking CT or MRI images acquired in one orientation and generating views from another angle: The radiologist resliced the dataset to get a better view of the lesion.
