Improved to Good Article status by Iflaq (talk). Self-nominated at 10:29, 10 April 2021 (UTC).
Substantial article, meeting of GA criteria implicates DYK pass. Article was nominated within 7 days of passing GA. Nominator is QPQ exempt. Hooks are interesing, cited, and short enough for DYK. Earwigs shows close paraphrasing in the "Multiplanar reconstruction and projections" and "Volume rendering" sections that need to be resolved before this nomination is passed.

Image for the link to the article
editI recently read about "Haller index" and when I hovered over the linked word to this article, the overview included a description of the article but also an image of the movie Frozen II. Is there any way to change the image since the article doesn't refer to the movie at all? Denoba (talk) 16:38, 4 May 2025 (UTC)
