How Can I Place The X Ray Order For Custom Facial Implants for Facial Asymmetry?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I have some facial asymmetry and I’m potentially interested in pursuing custom implants as a solution.

When ordering a CT scan of the head, is there anything special I have to ask for to totally maximize image quality, other than that they use the thinnest possible slices and send me 100% of the raw data with no postprocessing?

A: We place the order for the 3D face CT scan so there is no confusion about how it is done.
