Abstract	Anatomical Department University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Victor Babes" Timisoara, Romania ABSTRACT: In this study, a three-dimensional (3-D) model of the pelvis was built based on thin slice plastination cross-sections of the adult female pelvis and 3-D reconstruction technology. A female pelvis was obtained, MRI scanned, plastinated, sectioned and subjected to 3-D computerized reconstruction using the WinSURF modeling system (SURFdriver Software). Qualitative observations revealed that the morphological features of the model were consistent with those displayed by typical cadaveric specimens, whilst closer morphometric analysis indicated that the model did not significantly differ from a sample of cadaveric specimens. This conclusion proves that the utilization of plastinates for generating tissue sections can be successfully integrated into 3-D computerized modeling . A better understanding of pelvic floor anatomy is relevant to gynaecologists, radiologists, surgeons, urologists, physical therapists and all professionals who take care of women with pelvic floor dysfunction. The objective of this study was to describe the method of developing this computerized model of the human female pelvis using plastinated slices. It is a method which could be applied to reconstruct any desired region of the human body.
