Abstract:: Abstract: At present, two-dimensional cross-sectional images cannot meet the needs of clinical diagnosis and treatment, and the method of constructing human model using medical image three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction system can effectively improve the efficiency of clinical diagnosis and treatment. Herein an overview of medical image 3D reconstruction software is given. The main functions of the current 4 kinds of medical image 3D reconstruction software, including Mimics, 3D Slicer, Simpleware and Amira, which are used for 3D reconstruction and assisting in diagnosis and treatment are introduced. Subsequently, the pros and cons of each software are compared and analyzed. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of medical image 3D reconstruction software in assisted diagnosis and treatment are summarized, and the improvement methods and future prospects are put forward.
