Hello, I wanted to ask how to create a section in the tomography that focuses on the outlines of anatomical structures. That is, you can see the bicortical (internal and external cortex). I send an image so you can see what I’m asking. Thank you very much and I congratulate you for this excellent program!!!

You can reslice the images along the dental arch curve, using [Curved Planar Reformat](https://github.com/PerkLab/SlicerSandbox?tab=readme-ov-file#curved-planar-reformat) module in Sandbox extension.

Thanks for your reply, what you are telling me is to make a panoramic image. What I need is for it to look like the image uploaded, in the upper part that says (Traced) Include “Traced Filter”, Slice thickness = 0.5 mm (circular cut)
