Abstract

Three dimensional (3D) tablets have been in use over recent years. It is mainly used in the entertainment and media industry to provide a better experience from the usual two dimensional effect of visualization. The third dimension ie. Depth allows for a more wholesome experience as our normal vision is three dimensional and not two dimensional. We have tried in this article to identify if three dimensional imaging using 3D tablet can be used in plastic surgery as the specialty involves identification of the three dimension defect and reconstruction of the same defect in the three dimensions of reconstruction (length, breadth, and depth).
