Summary
Three dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) offers a new way to view multi-dimensional images from CT slices. This technique is useful for assessing frontal skull deformities in infants with coronal synostosis before and after surgery.
Area of Science:
- Medical Imaging
- Pediatric Surgery
- Craniofacial Surgery
Background:
- Three dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) is an advanced imaging technique.
- It reconstructs multi-dimensional morphological images from standard CT slices.
- 3D CT is particularly valuable for evaluating complex craniofacial abnormalities.
