Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Cinematic rendering technique is used to generate almost photorealistic 3D reconstructions of volumetric data. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of cinematically rendered reconstructions in routine CT examinations of ankle sprains. CONCLUSION: Cinematic rendering technique may be primarily used to deliver visual information to patients, physicians, and virtual anatomy classes. Postprocessing requires more time than traditional methods do, which can be a hindrance in clinical work.
