Review

Aus den Rezensionen:

"... Der Übergang von der konventionellen Röntgendiagnostik ... in die virtuelle Realität der dreidimensionalen Datensätze war bisher jedoch immer problematisch ... Das vorliegende Buch ... schließt diese Lücke ... Es ist das Verdienst der Herausgeber dieses Buches, in der reich bebilderten Darstellung eine Möglichkeit aufzuzeigen, konventionelle zephalometrische Landmarken in reproduzierbarer Weise auf die dreidimensionale Anatomie des Gesichtsschädels und seiner Weichteile zu übertragen und dort sichtbar zu machen. ... Das Buch hat daher einen hohen praktischen Wert ... Aufgrund seines umfassenden Literaturverzeichnisses ist es ... lohnenswert ..." (Prof. Dr. Dr. H.Schliephake, in: MKG - Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie, 2006, Vol. 10, Issue 2, S. 126)
