Enhanced Ultrasound Visualization for Procedure Guidance
Intra-cardiac procedures often involve fast-moving anatomic structures with large spatial extent and high geometrical complexity. Real-time visualization of the moving structures and instrument-tissue contact is crucial to the success of these procedures. Real-time 3D ultrasound is a promising modality for procedure guidance as it offers improved spatial orientation information relative to 2D u...
متن کاملMaster ’ s Thesis Projection - Based Assistance for Ultrasonographic Diagnosis
In the modern age, medical examinations tend to use visual information about the internal condition of the human body for more accurate diagnosis. This information is especially useful to help physicians monitor the phase of a certain treatment or diagnosis such as fetal examination and cardiac study. By using this visual information, the diagnosing phase can be observed from time to time. Ultr...
متن کاملRobotic Motion Compensation for 3D Ultrasound-Guided Beating Heart Surgery
Beating heart surgeries offer significant health benefits to patients by removing the need for the heart-lung machine and its attendant side effects. These surgeries are challenging to perform and only feasible in certain types of procedures because of the rapid movement of the heart. Equipping the surgeon with fast, actuated, and intelligent surgical instruments that automatically compensate f...
متن کاملHigh-Quality 3D Visualization of In-Situ Ultrasonography
In recent years medical ultrasound has experienced a rapid development in the quality of real-time 3D ultrasound (US) imaging. The image quality of the 3D volume that was previously possible to achieve within the range of a few seconds, is now possible in a fraction of a second. This technological advance offers entirely new opportunities for the use of US in the clinic. In our project, we inve...
متن کاملFabrication, Packaging, and Catheter Assembly of 2d Cmut Arrays for Endoscopic Ultrasound and Cardiac Imaging
Ultrasound is increasingly in demand as a medical imaging tool and can be particularly beneficial in the field of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE). However, many challenges remain in the development of a 3D ultrasound imaging system. We have designed and fabricated a quad-ring capacitive micromachined ultrasound transducer (CMUT) for real-time, volumetric medical imaging. Each CMUT array is ...
