Abstract
Conventional radiographs arise from the projection of a volume and, as a result, show superimpositions. The role of the radiologist is the extraction of normal and pathological details that can be interpreted in terms of three-dimensional structures. Superimposition was overcome by scanning. Translation of the scans in the third dimension requires a capacity of imagination only gained after extensive training. It is therefore not surprising that three-dimensional imaging encounters an enthusiastic response from surgeons.
