| Abstract;A digital three Dimensional(3D) ultrasound imaging system for neurosurgery has been developed. A diagnostic ultrasound imaging system is PC-based and its communication program makes it possible to transfer image datasets to other computers through LAN. To acquire 3D images, we rotated the probe and an encoder measured the accurate position of the probe. Volume data were reconstructed from sequence of 2D images acquired during the probe rotation. Another PC treated graphics, controlled the motor, and the image data were transferred to the memory of it from the diagnostic ultrasound machine. It took approximately 40 seconds from the beginning of the getting the data, to show the volume data, and they could be treated at real time speed because of a graphic accelerator board specialized to voxel data. The opacity and color of volume were assigned according to their intensity and the setting could be changed easily. It will help surgeons to understand the condition of the lesion during the operation. (author abst.) |
