Area of Science:

Anatomy
Medical Imaging
3D Reconstruction

Background:

The Mingmen (GV 4) area is a critical anatomical region.
Detailed spatial understanding is essential for clinical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

To visualize and analyze the three-dimensional (3D) space structures of the Mingmen (GV 4) area.
To provide a comprehensive anatomical reference for the lumbar region.

Main Methods:

Utilized a frozen female cadaver sectioned into 0.5 mm thick slices.
Acquired high-resolution digital and optical images of transverse sections.
Employed 3D reconstruction software to create detailed spatial models of the lumbar region including Mingmen (GV 4).

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

Generated 3,022 transverse phase image data sets (0.57 mm thickness).
Successfully reconstructed the 3D anatomical form of the lumbar area containing Mingmen (GV 4).
Enabled dynamic visualization of the Mingmen (GV 4) structures from multiple angles.

Conclusions:

Computer-aided 3D reconstruction provides a dynamic and comprehensive view of the Mingmen (GV 4) anatomy.
This method allows for detailed analysis of the spatial construction laws of the gross form of Mingmen (GV 4).
The reconstructed data sets serve as a valuable resource for anatomical studies and potential clinical interventions.
