ABSTRACT:
Three-dimensional models are constructed from two-dimensional tomographic data collected from contiguous, substantially parallel, cross-sectional tomographic slices through an imaged object. The scan angle of each cross-sectional tomographic slice is variably disposed at a predetermined, non-perpendicular angle with respect to a longitudinal axis through the scanner/imaged object to better depict certain structures and/or shapes of the scanner/imaged object. Optimum scan angle generated two-dimensional tomographic data is selected to reconstruct three-dimensional images depicting the surface and/or interior structure of the imaged object. The optimum two-dimensional data set is supplied to a three-dimensional model generator to form a three-dimensional model of the imaged object.
