title: [Research of the key technique in virtual endoscopy and its clinical application].
abstract: Studying the critical technique of virtual endoscopy (VE), we developed a VE system for clinical application. Computerized tomograph (CT) VE images built by the VE system were compared to those by fiberscopy and pathology. The results showed that the VE system could satisfy the demand of clinical application. The technique being applied to VE system is feasible.
