Volume Measurement in Sequential Freehand 3-D Ultrasound
[chapter]
1999
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
However, it is hard to generate a regular volume of data from the resulting non-parallel ultrasound images. ...
The only 3D technique which retains the scanning flexibility and wide area of application of 2D ultrasound, is freehand 3D ultrasound, where a 2D probe is moved manually and its location sensed remotely ...
Thanks also to David Tricker, for much needed encouragement and long lunch breaks. ...
