Upper right: The soft tissues are made transparent, thus revealing the calcified lesions within the volume of the heart (large cylinder). Lower left: The soft tissue is made fully transparent, clearly showing the full boundary of the spine (small cylinder) and the calcified lesions. Lower right: The spine is made partly transparent.
