The 3D Imaging Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital provides 3D post-processing for medical and surgical specialties using protocols tailored to specific clinical applications.
Clinical application of 3D images in orthopedics provides information that improves patient care:
- 3D visualization is extremely helpful for comprehensive understanding of skeletal trauma, especially involving the face, spine, pelvis, acetabulae, foot, and shoulder girdle, and aids in assessment, decision making and surgical planning
3D post-processing is available for applications including:
- CT Cervical Spine
- CT Thoracic Spine
- CT Lumbar Spine
- CT Sacrum
- CT Pelvis
- CT Shoulder
- CT Humerus
- CT Elbow
- CT Forearm
- CT Wrist
- CT Hand
- CT Hip
- CT Femur
- CT Knee
- CT Tibia and Fibula
- CT Ankle
- CT Foot
3D Applications: Orthopedics
Orthopedics: Knee with Fracture
3D volume rendered rotation of the entire knee to demonstrate a complex tibial fracture.
Orthopedics: Scapula and Humerus Fractures
3D volume rendered batch rotation of the shoulder joint to demonstrate scapula and humerus fractures.
