    Awesome stuff.

    Scientific imaging is a passion of mine. I actually bought a lab quality optical microscope probably 20 years ago now. It was during my Astrophotography heyday and it took a far backseat to the astronomy side. I do intend to get back into it someday.

    Not sure I will ever own a CT scanner. 🤣

      My wife has spent a fair amount of time in radiology departments and evaluates CT scans on a daily basis.

      According to her, the 3D reconstructions are mostly nice-looking gimmicks with little value for the radiologist.

        Indeed. It really showed nothing. But it's pretty cool nevertheless.

        I can see it being of more use for orthopedic issues to properly assess fractures.

          The marketing department probably loves it. I bet they say "it demos well".

          Education is extremely important.

            Sure does. However, it's basically just an "add-on" to the existing technology. Just software, and no additional work needed.

                  @taiwan_girl ...what @Horace said.

                  Cut and paste is helpful.

                    No “additional data,” hence of little additional value for the radiologists. Makes sense.

                      I know a woman that owns a 3D sonogram business. It’s marketed directly to pregnant women for the keepsakes, it doesn’t operate as a medical radiology facility at all.

                      Great 3D images though.

                      Only non-witches get due process.

                        Yes. for soft tissue, I agree.

                        But I also said, "I can see it being of more use for orthopedic issues to properly assess fractures."

                        Several of the guys I used to work with found them quite useful.
