Enabling Technologies for Robot Assisted Ultrasound Tomography: System Setup and Calibration

INVENTION NOVELTY We are proposing a robot-assisted ultrasound tomography system that can offer soft tissue tomographic imaging, and deeper or faster scan of the anatomy. This system consists of a robot-held ultrasound probe which tracks the position of another freehand probe, trying to align with it.
