Project Description

Objective

• This project will investigate the use of a single-element ultrasound transducer for 2D image reconstruction from navigated 2D ultrasound images.
• Technology: invariant feature extraction, descriptor representation.
• Application domains: registration, respiratory motion compensation
• Image domains: Ultrasound.
• Clinical use case scenarios: Establishment of a 4D motion atlas from 2D ultrasound data.

Approach, Plan

• Discussion and documentation
• Algorithms: fast KNN methods, binning.
• Mathematical formalisms: Correlation, similarity measures.
