The ability to create 3-dimensional (3D) renderings from multidetector computed tomography data enables a global overview of complex anatomy and disease processes which can be difficult to appreciate on 2-dimensional images. As such, 3D computed tomography has become an invaluable adjunct for diagnosis and treatment planning of many urologic conditions. A newly available method of 3D visualization, known as cinematic rendering, uses a complex lighting model to create photorealistic images and holds promise for improved discrimination of tumors and cancer staging in genitourinary imaging. Here, we present the first published case of a clear cell renal cell carcinoma visualized with cinematic rendering.
利用多排螺旋计算机断层扫描数据创建三维(3D)渲染图的能力,能够对复杂的解剖结构和疾病过程进行全面观察,而这些在二维图像上可能难以理解。因此,3D计算机断层扫描已成为许多泌尿系统疾病诊断和治疗规划中非常重要的辅助手段。一种新出现的3D可视化方法,即电影渲染,使用复杂的光照模型来创建逼真的图像,并有望在泌尿生殖系统成像中更好地鉴别肿瘤和进行癌症分期。在此,我们展示首例通过电影渲染可视化的透明细胞肾细胞癌病例。
