The use of computed tomography in visualizing the complex anatomy of the foot is well documented in current literature. However, one difficulty with CT films, as well as those of other imaging modalities, is that three-dimensional anatomy is represented in two dimensions. The observer is thus required to assimilate the consecutive film slices into an accurate mental picture of the patient's anatomical structure. Many physicians may find the results of this process unacceptable and inaccurate in select cases of severely abnormal patient anatomy. The authors present a solution, three-dimensional computed tomography reconstruction, and its clinical usefulness in a case presentation.
计算机断层扫描在显示足部复杂解剖结构方面的应用在当前文献中有充分记载。然而，CT 片以及其他成像方式的片子存在一个难点，即三维解剖结构以二维形式呈现。因此，观察者需要将连续的胶片切片整合为患者解剖结构的准确心理图像。在某些患者解剖结构严重异常的情况下，许多医生可能会发现这个过程的结果不可接受且不准确。作者提出了一种解决方案，即三维计算机断层扫描重建，并在病例展示中阐述了其临床实用性。
