I need a similar thing. Only I'm not interested in the image, but the cross section areas.

you may need to look at plane-line intersection algorism. The inersection points between each triangle's edge and a slice plane are the data point of your sliced corss-section. Changing the Z-cordinate of your slice plane, repeat the intersection, you would then get a series of slices (2D series of image)
