* Researchers fixed and prepared a cadaver, obtaining 2-D imaging data, and reconstructed the mandible in 3-D with Amira software.
* The final 3-D model accurately represents the anatomical details of the mandible, providing a valuable resource for education and surgical applications in dentistry and maxillofacial surgery.
- The objective of the study was to create a digital model of the mandible to aid in diagnosing and treating jaw diseases.
- Researchers used a male cadaver and various digital techniques to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of the mandible, reconstructing them into a 3D model using software.
- The resulting model accurately represented the mandible's anatomy, including the mandibular nerve canal, and could be manipulated in 3D for better visualization and understanding.
