  • Abstract
    Informed consent for patients becomes important clinics where the doctor explains diseases and treatments. But patients have difficulty understanding medical images, i.e. X-rays, CT or MRI because the patient is not expert in reading these medical images. In this paper, we tried to reconstruct the stereoscopic image of CT and MRI and display these using a simple and low cost auto-stereoscopic viewer.
