3d Ultrasound Probe Calibration without a Position Sensor
We present a technique for 3D ultrasound probe calibration which does not require measurements from the position sensor. The principle of operation is that the beam is aligned with a set of coplanar wires strung across a rigid frame. The probe and frame are mounted on a precision-manufactured mechanical instrument which allows adjustment and measurement of their relative pose. Semi-automatic im...
متن کاملRobotic Ultrasound Needle Placement and Tracking: Robot-to-Robot Calibration
In medicine and industry, there is a need for flexible multirobot platforms that allow for independent placement of multiple robotic manipulators. The Computer Aided Medical Procedures research group at Johns Hopkins University has developed a multi-robot surgical platform with two KUKA iiwa robotic manipulators. Each KUKA system is built into a mobile workstation, which makes them easy to tran...
متن کامل A novel approach to automatic position calibration for pixelated crystals in gamma imaging
Introduction: The position estimation in gamma detection system will have constant misplacements which can be corrected in the calibration procedure. In the pixelated crystal uniformly irradiation of detector will produce irregular shape due to position estimation errors. This image is called flood field image and is used to calibrate the position estimation. In this work we pr...
متن کاملDesign, Evaluation and Prototyping of a New Robotic Mechanism for Ultrasound Imaging
This paper presents a new robotic mechanism for ultrasound imaging. The device is placed on a patient's body by an operator, and an ultrasound expert controls the motions of the device to obtain ultrasound images. The paper focuses on the robotic mechanism that performs ultrasound imaging. The design of the mechanism is based on two approaches to produce center of motion for an ultrasound probe...
متن کاملRobotic ultrasound probe for tumor identification in robotic partial nephrectomy: Initial series and outcomes.
OBJECTIVES Accurate tumor identification during partial nephrectomy is essential for successful tumor control. Intraoperative laparoscopic ultrasonography is useful for tumor localization, but the ultrasound probe is controlled by the assistant rather than the surgeon. We evaluated our initial experience using a robotic ultrasound probe that is controlled by the console surgeon. METHODS Parti...
