Figure 7From: Advantages and disadvantages of 3D ultrasound of thyroid nodules including thin slice volume rendering Multiplanar reformation (MPR) presentation of three-dimensional gray-scale ultrasound of papillary thyroid cancer without and with static volume imaging mode. (a) classic MPR presentation; (b) MPR presentation of the lesion with a new 3D postprocessing technique - static volume contrast imaging (VCI). Thin-slice volumes of 2 mm thickness with the surface rendering algorithm increases the contrast and reduces the noise on the resultant images.Back to article page
