چکیده انگلیسی
We present a novel technique for 3D ultrasound probe calibration. The principle of operation is that the beam is aligned with a set of coplanar wires strung across a rigid frame. The probe and frame are mounted on a precision-manufactured mechanical instrument which allows adjustment and measurement of their relative pose. Semi-automatic image processing facilitates alignment of the beam and wires to within a tolerance of around 0.2 mm, despite the considerable beam thickness. The calibration process requires just a single view and relatively little user expertise. In a series of experiments with different ultrasound probes, we demonstrate the technique's high accuracy and precision. The latter is partly due to the elimination of the position sensor, a significant source of measurement noise, from the end-user calibration process. (E-mail: ahg@eng.cam.ac.uk)
