    Abstract:
    Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction in routine computerized tomography (CT) presupposes that the referring clinicians are motivated, software programs are of good quality, a second working console is available and manipulations are made by experienced persons. Maxillofacial surgery is the main, conventional indication, but the method is also used to plan the surgical treatment of craniofacial malformations and that of injuries and tumours. 3D reconstruction cannot replace a thorough analysis of the acquisition sections since its spatial definition is not as good as theirs. Without competing with pure research-work, a number of applications remain in the realm of speculative imaging, but it cannot be denied that 3D reconstruction has an interesting potential for teaching.
