          Abstract

          Recent application of computer graphics, using standardized cephalometric analyses, have allowed the surgeon to visualize the predicted surgical outcome on the computer video monitor. Stereolithographic models constructed from digital image data (computed tomography and magnetic resonance) will allow the surgeon to view the external and internal anatomy prior to surgery. This article describes the development of such technology and reports its use in one case.
