Dear Tassilo,

If you have an image that is just the tip of the colloid (as imaged by a
single surface spike), you could use Data Process>Level>Fit Sphere.

If you use the blind tip reconstruction technique suggested by Daniil
Bratashov, then you could also apply the fit sphere function to the
reconstructed tip image.

Best regards,
Chris
