title: [Improvements in 3-D ultrasonic imaging].
abstract: The problem of gaining a coordinated sequence of section cuts by ultrasound is solved by rotating the plane section around a vertical and a horizontal axle. There are two possibilities in presenting the 3D image of the examined organ: ring structure image or transparent image. Precondition in the ring structure image is time consuming and defective since it has to be done by hand using a cursor. These pitfalls can be avoided when using a method without contouring by showing the 3D image transparently. Each section cut has to be calculated transparently. Both methods are presented in this paper and compared as to their applicability in medicine. The problem of the transparent 3D presentation lies in the fact that it cannot be well presented on printed paper, as is done her. The moving picture on the computer screen gives an optimal 3D image. This new method seem to be useful in tumor diagnostic and diagnostic of malformations in early pregnancies.
