Three-dimensional imaging with MRI is a useful method for neurosurgical simulations. As in our previous study, we have constructed three-dimensional surface anatomical scanning (3D-SAS) from the data of contrast enhanced 3D fast spoiled gradient recalled acquisition in the steady state (3D-FSPGR) sequence. Using this technique, if is possible to generate 3D images from the data of only one acquisition, without using the fusion function. In our previous study, we did not compare the 3D images with the operative views at surgery. In the present study, two radiologists and one neurosurgeon assessed the 3D images in comparison with the operative views. There were problems in some cases, including unclear cortical sulci owing to brain swelling, lack of depiction of the cortical veins owing to meningeal enhancement, inadequate distinction between pial veins and meningeal veins, and so forth. However, in the majority of cases, 3D-SAS with 3D-FSPGR was able to demonstrate good anatomical conformity with the operative views, indicating the clinical usefulness of this technique.
