Aim of this technical note is to show the applicability of cinematic rendering (CR) for a photorealistic 3-dimensional (3D) visualization of maxillofacial structures. The focus is on maxillofacial hard tissue pathologies.
High density maxillofacial pathologies were selected in which CR is applicable. Data from both, CT and cone beam CT (CBCT) were postprocessed using a prototype CR software.
CR 3D postprocessing of CT and CBCT imaging data is applicable on high density structures and pathologies such as bones, teeth, and tissue calcifications. Image reconstruction allows for a detailed visualization of surface structures, their plasticity, and 3D configuration.
CR allows for the generation of photorealistic 3D reconstructions of high density structures and pathologies. Potential applications for maxillofacial bone and tooth imaging are given and examples for CT and CBCT images are displayed.
本技术说明旨在展示电影渲染 (CR) 在颌面结构的逼真三维 (3D) 可视化中的适用性。重点是颌面硬组织病变。
选择了高密度颌面病变,适用于 CR。使用原型 CR 软件对 CT 和锥形束 CT (CBCT) 数据进行后处理。
CR 对 CT 和 CBCT 成像数据的 3D 后处理适用于高密度结构和病变,如骨骼、牙齿和组织钙化。图像重建允许对表面结构、其可塑性和 3D 配置进行详细可视化。
CR 允许生成高密度结构和病变的逼真 3D 重建。给出了颌面骨和牙齿成像的潜在应用,并展示了 CT 和 CBCT 图像的示例。
