In digital imaging, a pixel (or picture element) is a single point in a raster image - that is a pixel is always a 2D element. The word pixel is based on a contraction of pix ("pictures") and el (for "element"); similar formations with el for "element" include the words: voxel and texel.

The corresponding term in 3D would be a voxel, also call volumetrix pixel - a volume (3D) element.
