Reconstruction of freehand 3D ultrasound based on kernel regression
INTRODUCTION Freehand three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound has the advantages of flexibility for allowing clinicians to manipulate the ultrasound probe over the examined body surface with less constraint in comparison with other scanning protocols. Thus it is widely used in clinical diagnose and image-guided surgery. However, as the data scanning of freehand-style is subjective, the collected B-sc...
متن کاملTissue motion and elevational speckle decorrelation in freehand 3D ultrasound.
3D positioning is essential for quantitative volume analysis in 3D ultrasound. Particularly for freehand scanning without an external positioning device, such information must be estimated by analyzing the original 2D images prior to 3D reconstruction. Previous work on freehand 3D positioning has focused on elevational displacement estimation using speckle decorrelation for linear scans. Howeve...
متن کاملReal-time sonoelastography of hepatic thermal lesions in a swine model.
Sonoelastography has been developed as an ultrasound-based elasticity imaging technique. In this technique, external vibration is induced into the target tissue. In general, tissue stiffness is inversely proportional to the amplitude of tissue vibration. Imaging tissue vibration will provide the elasticity distribution in the target region. This study investigated the feasibility of using real-...
متن کاملAutomatic classification of Non-alcoholic fatty liver using texture features from ultrasound images
Background: Accurate and early detection of non-alcoholic fatty liver, which is a major cause of chronic diseases is very important and is vital to prevent the complications associated with this disease. Ultrasound of the liver is the most common and widely performed method of diagnosing fatty liver. However, due to the low quality of ultrasound images, the need for an automatic and intelligent...
متن کاملLive ultrasound volume reconstruction using scout scanning
INTRODUCTION Ultrasound-guided interventions often necessitate scanning of deep-seated anatomical structures that may be hard to visualize. Visualization can be improved using reconstructed 3D ultrasound volumes. High-resolution 3D reconstruction of a large area during clinical interventions is challenging if the region of interest is unknown. We propose a two-stage scanning method allowing the...
