Three-Dimensional Computed Tomography Diagnosis of Cranium Bifidum with Meningocele in a Lamb

Abstract   Case Description- A three-day-old male Kordi lamb had a soft painless fluctuating mass on the mid-parietal region, with no clinical signs except difficulty in standing; was referred to the clinic. Clinical Findings- Clinical examination revealed a normal body temperature, a heart rate, a respiratory rate, and inability to stand without any congenital defects Three-dimensional comp...

Three-dimensional reconstruction of New Zealand rabbit antebrachium by multidetector computed tomography

The aim of this study was to reveal biometric peculiarities of New Zealand white rabbit antebrachium (radius and ulna) by means of three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images. Under general anesthesia, the antebrachiums of a total of sixteen rabbits of both sexes were scanned with a general diagnostic MDCT. Biometric measurements of the reconstructed...

Methods to evaluate the performance of kilovoltage cone-beam computed tomography in the three-dimensional reconstruction space

Background: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanners for image-guided radiotherapy are in clinical use today, but there has been no consensus on uniform acceptance to verify the CBCT image quality yet. The present work proposed new methods to fully evaluate the performance of CBCT in its three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction space. Materials and Methods: Compared to the traditional methods...

Three-dimensional alloplastic orbital reconstruction in skull base surgery.

INTRODUCTION The orbit may be directly involved by neoplasms or other destructive processes arising from the orbital contents, the osseous framework or, indirectly, as extensions of extraorbital tumors from the sinuses or cranial vault. In most osseous neoplasms of the orbit, and in tumors with extension into the orbit from surrounding areas, resection of part or all of the orbital walls will b...
