Indeed, computer imaging, when accompanied by appropriate explanation, provides the opportunity for improved patient-doctor communication The surgeon or staff member should explain to the patient that computer based morphing cannot take into account certain unpredictable factors that are a part of the practice of surgery Patient is analog and not digital; so the results of an actual surgery can in no way be predicted or represented in advance by a computer simulation. The imaging is simply a way for both the patient and doctor to share an image of the surgical goal Incorporate provisions that address this disclosure into a consent form
Help & guidance to surgeon Various expert system modules, such as the Gunter Rhinoplasty Module (Mirror Imaging Systems), may aid the surgeon in selecting an effective technique for a particular deformity These algorithms reflect a database that summarizes the approach of a particular expert or the consensus approach of a panel of experts in a variety of clinical situations These systems may be most useful for resident surgeons and novice surgeons 3-Dimensional Imaging Device in Facial Aesthetic & Reconstructive Surgery Using conventional methods, the assessment of facial aesthetic outcomes is largely based upon subjective observation in contrast to objectively measured data It is not possible to quantify 3-dimensional change on a 2-dimensional surface, such as a photograph Attempting to make measurements based on photographs, for many years the state of the art, is inherently inaccurate as the facial structure is 3-dimensional One of the most challenging issues of imaging is producing a reliable and consistent method of obtaining 3 dimensional images of a patient, both preoperatively and postoperatively over time Newer technologies multiple images taken to create a 3 dimensional image (e.g. Minolta Vivid 300) Has a high degree of precision for depicting the surface topography in facial reconstructive and aesthetic patients Use of these 3-dimensional devices accurately capture the finest details of a human face over different time points Collating each time point study the imagery to quantify topographical changes of the patients face over time This type of 3-dimensional imagery can serve as an improved objective guide to assess changes in facial surface topography, both in the immediate and long-term post-operative period Provides better & a more reliable, objective, and consistent method than conventional photography
