Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When axial, coronal, and sagittal images are viewed together, they are referred to as multiplanar reconstructed images (MPR images). MPR images are created from CT or CBCT datasets by reconstructing the images in planes that were not originally acquired during the scan. This allows for a better visualization of the anatomy in three dimensions. Therefore, the best choice is D, as it includes both options A and B as correct. Option C, CBCT images, refers only to a specific type of imaging technology and not to the combination of planes.
