Guidance of an ultrasound probe by visual servoing
A new visual servoing technique based on two-dimensional (2-D) ultrasound (US) image is proposed in order to control the motion of an US probe held by a medical robot. In opposition to a standard camera which provides a projection of the three-dimensional (3-D) scene to a 2-D image, US information is strictly in the observation plane of the probe and consequently visual servoing techniques have...
متن کاملAutomatic Guidance of an Ultrasound Probe by Visual Servoing Based on B-Mode Image Moments
We propose a new visual servo approach to automatically control in real-time the full motion of a 2D ultrasound (US) probe held by a medical robot in order to reach a desired image of motionless soft tissue object in B-mode ultrasound imaging. Combinations of image moments of the observed object cross-section are used as feedback information in the visual control scheme. These visual features a...
متن کاملVisual Servoing for Robot-assisted Diagnostic Ultrasound
A robot system for positioning an ultrasound probe has been developed [1]. Ultrasound visual servoing can be used to help ultrasound technicians position the ultrasound probe. The feasibility of visual servoing for motion in the plane of the ultrasound probe in one dimension has been addressed here. Tracking of the carotid artery for a long period of time has been demonstrated in real-time. Two...
متن کاملTarget Tracking in 3D Ultrasound Volumes by Direct Visual Servoing
Three dimensional ultrasound (3DUS) guided robotic beating heart surgery is an emerging computer-assisted surgical technique. Motion tracking of both the robot and the heart tissue is one of the key open problems in these procedures and the use of 3DUS imaging offers the possibility to extract, intra-operatively and in real time, the motion of one or more targets. In this paper, we present a vi...
متن کاملRigid motion compensation with a robotized 2D ultrasound probe using speckle information and visual servoing
This work deals with the use of speckle information contained in 2D B-mode ultrasound images to control the displacement of a robotized ultrasound probe with a visual servoing control scheme. The objective is to automatically synchronize the displacement of a conventional 2D ultrasound probe held by a medical robot in such a way to stabilize the image of a moving soft tissue. Such a workable me...
