Objectives

Several groups have developed ultrasound-guided intervention systems in the last two decades but until recently these groups have worked mostly in parallel, independently from each other. The Image Guided Systems Inter-Operability (IGSIO) group was founded in 2016 January after lengthy discussions regarding the standardization of tracked ultrasound communication to work towards improving the interoperability between industrial products and research software platforms. See more information about this effort at http://igsio.github.io/.

The goal of this workshop is to promote the concept and practice of a shared software platform for ultrasound-guided interventions. Participants will learn, in practice, to build clinical applications using software platform tools.
