  • Method of correlating the three-dimensional images of human organs and device for implementation of the method
    Patent number: 5237998
    Abstract: The three-dimensional correlation of images of a human organ, especially dental arcades, uses an impression in the occlusive position, providing a reference in the form of three mutually spaced reference points. Three-dimensional views are taken of the impression and the points and views are also taken with the impression removed. Using the images of the reference points as a basis, the sets of views are then correlated to bring them into a single referential system.
