To make diagnosis, doctors many times analyze images becomes a point with the color calculated by the R, G and
slices acquired from, for example, Computed B values related to this pixel position in the corresponding
Tomography, and try to mentally reconstruct the resultant images. Therefore, it is possible to visualize a cloud of
tri-dimensional scene. The acquired information strongly points placed one to the side of the others, through a
