Clinical applications of volumetric three-dimensional imaging. A report of three cases.
Three-dimensional imaging has evolved rapidly. We believe that volumetric image processing (VIP) represents a major advance within this modality. VIP preserves the fidelity of the original computed tomography (CT) data and allows the viewer to interact with the images in real time. This complements and integrates the information acquired on two-dimensional CT studies, as illustrated in three representative cases.
