3D Imaging and Advanced Visualization

Barnes-Jewish West County Hospital provides an advanced 3D imaging laboratory. The 3D Imaging Laboratory takes data from cross-sectional computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies and produces life-like views of body systems.

Providers benefit from 3D imaging technology because it is another tool that makes the diagnosis process even clearer. It also can aid in surgical planning. Patients benefit because they can view their own anatomy, which often helps in understanding their condition and treatment process.
