Fig. 16 Versatility of 3D data set is shown with three consecutive
cropping planes (lateral, elevation, and azimuthal [axial]), each
perpendicular to other, used to create 3D images that are perpendicular to one
another. Three-dimensional rendering can be performed in any direction
perpendicular to reference plane. Note that final image (drawing E) represents
equivalent of C scan with cutting plane being perpendicular to axial plane or
depth of ultrasound beam. (Illustration by Richard Gersony)
