Abstract

The 3-dimensional (3D) stereoscopic modeling software allows anatomists to create high-resolution 3D models from computed tomography (CT) images. In this paper, we used high resolution CT images from a cadaver and a patient to develop clinically relevant anatomic models that can be used to teach surgical trainees different surgical procedures and approaches. The model facilitates visualization, manipulation, and interaction. It can be presented in stereoscopic 3D in a virtual environment, either in a classroom setting or immediately preceding a surgical procedure.
