Abstract:
This study was conducted to establish the methods of virtual three-dimensional cerebral arteries models by use of three-dimensional moulding software. The virtual models of the cerebral arteries were established using the three-dimensional moulding software of 3D Studio MAX R3 with 46 cases of normal cerebral DSA image as the original. The results showed there was similarity in appearance between the virtual cerebral arteries and DSA image. This is of benefit to understanding the vascular three-dimensional spatial relation in visual sense. Several models of different variant anatomy could be easily established on the copy files of the virtual cerebral arteries model. The virtual model could help learners to create and increase the three-dimensional space concept of arteries and aneurysms in clinical teaching. The results indicated that the virtual three-dimensional cerebral arteries models could display the three-dimensional spatial relation of the cerebral arterial system distinctly, and could serve as a morphologic foundation in the researches on vascular disease.
