摘要
The data set of the thorax acquired by spiral CT is volumetric. Such data can be processed so that conventional axial sections are supplemented by reconstructed images, in an attempt to answer specific clinical questions. This review considers three reconstruction techniques: multiplanar reformation, three-dimensional rendering and sliding-thin slab reconstruction. Their relative benefits and limitations are considered, as are the implications of image processing in general.
