The use of 3d programs in the treatment of glioblastomas - 3d angio window

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to define pre- and postoperative planning as a new usage area of 3D imaging programs in the follow-up and treatment of glioblastomas. The thin-section MRI images of the cases were used in this study. These images were analyzed with the 3D angio window of the Radiant Dicom Viewer © Program. In the 3D angio window, it was found that the glioblastoma tumour tissue was revealed in 3D, such as the vascular structures, when calvarium and brain tissue were suppressed. In this examination method, the bleeding in the postoperative surgical area is also suppressed, the contrasting residue tissue is fully visible, and can be monitored in 3D.
