title: [The preliminary research of 3D-reconstruction of lacrimal sac under computer].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the application of 3D-reconstruction of lacrimal sac under computer.
  
  
  METHODS
  To the 3D model of lacrimal passage was reconstructed with CT scanning.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The anatomy of lacrimal passage could be displayed with 3D-reconstruction under computer and the relation between lacrimal sac and the axilla of the middle turbinate could be observed and measured freely.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The technology of 3D-reconstruction under computer is greatly valuable in the anatomic research of lacrimal sac.
