Scanning technologies like Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are constantly seeking a balance between a high scanning resolution, radiation exposure and inconvenience caused to the patient. With the availability of high resolution scanning technology today, specialized software which is capable of supporting investigations by processing huge amounts of data becomes more necessary than ever before. The conventional scanning processes and systems provide the radiologist or the medical examiner only with a set of 2D images of thin "slices" of the scanned part, which the professional has to then reconstruct based on his experience and expertise. This process becomes time consuming, sometimes manual error prone, and limits the use of the scanned data. 3D medical visualization software has overcome this problem by providing the user with a 3D representation of the patient’s anatomy reconstructed from the raw scanned data.
Modern MRI instruments are capable of producing images in the form of 3D blocks. The scanners allow the scanned data to be reformatted as volumetric (3D) representation of the structures. However, this requires software with advanced rendering algorithms for easy manipulation of volumetric data. |

3D visualization technologies not only diagnose but also enable accurate surgical planning. They allow application of virtual surgeries on patient models, treatment planning, creation of customized treatment appliances – e.g. implants that are extensively used in fields like Orthodontics and Orthopedics, or the ones used in Radiotherapy. The specifications for such devices are created in a ’treatment planning’ CAD environments that model a specific patient and produce custom contours and surface representations in the desired format. This custom device design data can also be used to generate the machining / manufacturing instructions for the treatment device.
All these technologies - 3D visualization, advanced rendering, treatment planning and custom device design can be leveraged more effectively if the data is available and shared between all the professionals involved, physicians, radiologists, surgeons and device manufacturers through collaborative patient data management solutions.
