Description
Summary:Ventriculomegaly is a condition marked by enlarged ventricles in the brain. The need for better visualization techniques is highlighted by the difficulty of understanding the data, particularly for the untrained eye. Previous approaches might fall short of offering thorough insights into ventriculomegaly and its underlying causes. This study proposes an approach that utilizes 118 MRI scans to create detailed three-dimensional (3D) models. Preliminary findings indicate that these 3D models significantly improve diagnostic accuracy, providing detailed insights into ventriculomegaly and its underlying causes. Furthermore, they facilitate longitudinal tracking of disease progression, aiding in treatment planning and evaluation. Despite challenges in image segmentation and model generation, such as ensuring accuracy and efficiency, this approach holds promise for enhancing ventriculomegaly diagnosis and management. Overall, integrating 3D modeling into clinical practice represents a significant advancement in improving patient outcomes and patient care quality.
