Three-dimensional reconstruction of the pancreas and its surrounding structures.

In order to establish a visible three-dimensional model of the pancreas and its surrounding structures, successive cross-sectional images were retrieved from the first data set of a visible Chinese woman, and a visible model of the pancreas and its surrounding structures was established. Finally three-dimensional reconstruction of the pancreas and its surrounding structures was carried out. The reconstructed, three-dimensional model of the pancreas and its surrounding structures can reveal both single and multiple organs with some of the structures being transparent. Moreover, the model can be rotated and sliced successively in any direction.
