The physician at the com cases whose diagnosis is certain, and with which new puter console is constantly amazed at the never ending series of organ sections and their mUltiple cases can be compared. In this way a data base is created, whether in the physician'S memory or in images arising through manipulation of the signal. Cerebral convolutions, orbital content, bone mar that of the computer, which is helpful in making row, the face and all its bones can now be made visi diagnoses. ble without any danger to the patient.
