title: Two-dimensional-three-dimensional reconstruction computed tomography techniques.
abstract: A brief but comprehensive review of the technologic basis of computed tomography leading to the generation of more specialized and sophisticated reformatted and reconstructed two- and three-dimensional images is presented. Elements that influence the quality of such images are emphasized. Examples of clinical applications in maxillofacial and dental practice are illustrated.
