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

Case ID:

C12963

Disclosure Date:

3/20/2014

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.
