Abstract
The temporal bone houses the end organs of hearing and equilibrium systems, the smallest separate bones and its articulates, the brain nerves (such as the facial nerve and cochlear nerve) and the carotid artery run through the temporal bone. The Three-dimension (3-D) reconstruction of the temporal bone from micro-CT data can show the excellent micro-architecture and their spatial relationships. Except the special annotation, all the Three-dimension images were reconstructed from the left temporal bone in this chapter.
