Why Do You Need Imaging Techniques?
In Medicine
Did you know that every year in Poland, approximately 1,582,611 computer tomography scans and 1,669,228 magnetic resonance imaging scans are performed?
These advanced examinations provide invaluable images that aid in diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases that affect us every day. Tissues, organs, tumors—everything is revealed before our eyes in the finest detail. However, this is just the beginning in the realm of digital medicine.
In Biomedical Sciences, Natural Sciences, Industry, and Many More
Are you aware that there are currently 81,500 researchers in our country, working across 623 institutions? This impressive number of science enthusiasts passionately dedicate themselves to uncovering the secrets of nature and new possibilities for both industry and society. Through their research, they capture images of tissues, structures, materials, components, and many other elements. These images serve as the foundation for developing innovative drugs, advanced implants, treatment strategies, and new technologies.
Examine and Verify
What You Can Achieve Through Image Processing and Analysis
In medicine, diagnostic tests such as computer tomography or magnetic resonance imaging provide not only static images but also valuable measurements of structures and distances between tissues. This data is invaluable for preoperative planning and selecting appropriate conservative treatment tactics. Merely viewing two-dimensional images is insufficient—physicians need accurate information about density, length, diameter, angles, and other parameters to make appropriate medical decisions.
In the fields of biomedical, natural sciences, and industry research, images play a pivotal role in revealing the potential of studied objects. The ability to non-destructively inspect their structures opens a wide range of perspectives. Evaluating morphometric parameters of bone tissue, bone mineral density, tissue regeneration, measuring structure thickness, spatial distribution of elements within studied objects, their porosity, and component quality control—are just some of the possibilities offered by image analysis derived from micro-computed tomography.
Visualize in Three Dimensions
Examine and Evaluate Up Close
Have you ever found it difficult to visualize how certain structures are arranged in space? Sometimes, standard 2D images are insufficient to grasp the complete picture. That’s why engineering support techniques meet these needs by allowing the reconstruction of images in three-dimensional space.
In medicine, three-dimensional visualization enables us to approach the anatomical structure of a patient, closely inspect pathological changes, and conduct precise spatial measurements. The technique of creating volumetric reconstructions, also known as “volume rendering,” offers unlimited possibilities for evaluating the structures, systems, and organs of the human body. We can manipulate cutting planes, adjust contrast, and meticulously analyze the image. This is just the beginning of the potential in preoperative surgical planning.
In other fields of science and industry, 3D visualizations are invaluable tools that reveal crucial information for our research. Applying volumetric and surface reconstructions based on images from micro-computed tomography allows for in-depth understanding of bone architecture, tissues, and organs. We can closely examine unique features, analyze material porosity, study geological structures, thoroughly evaluate defects or gaps in production process components. Three-dimensional visualization techniques open new horizons and enable the discovery of new paths in science, medicine, and technological processes.
Evaluate Objects in Reality
Why Do We Need 3D Printing?
In moments when digital representation of anatomy, biomaterials, or objects proves insufficient to solve complex problems or develop strategic plans, that’s when 3D printing comes into play. Its potential in rapid prototyping is indispensable. The ability to hold a three-dimensional model in your hands cannot be overstated. In medicine, this opens new horizons, allowing for the creation of a realistic model of a patient’s anatomical structure before a planned surgical procedure. This invaluable tool supports precision and understanding, benefiting both the patient and the medical team. In medicine, natural sciences, and industry, 3D printing is a driving force shaping the future through the production of precise models, prototypes, and tools.
