We present an automatic procedure developed to reconstruct electromagnetic EM showers in the nuclear emulsions of the OPERA neutrino experiment. It is an entirely new procedure based on emulsion images acquired with 1 micrometer pitch tomography. The enhanced 3D accuracy is used in the reconstruction of particles' tracks and for the evaluation of shower energies in interesting neutrino event topologies detected by OPERA.
