3D-CT stereoscopic imaging in maxillofacial surgery.
We obtained stereoscopic 3D-CT images in maxillofacial bone fracture patients. These images are made at two different angles. One is equivalent to the view obtained by a subciliary incision during surgery. Another is equivalent to the view obtained by oral incision during surgery. A stereoscopic image is created with a pair of images that differ from each other by a 6 degree shift of the z axis.
