3D and cinematic rendering of abdominopelvic pathology in the peripartum period.

3D with volume rendering and the more recently described technique of cinematic rendering are post-processing techniques that create reconstructions of cross sectional imaging data which enhance image interpretation. This review illustrates the potential applications of volume rendering, 3D, and cinematic rendering in the evaluation of abdominopelvic pathology in the peripartum period. These techniques show promise in improving visualization of pelvic structures, vascular mapping, highlighting textural differences between tissues, and improving understanding of spatial relationships.
