Abstract

The three-dimensional ultrasound imaging, which helps in the visualization of tools during surgical procedures was investigated. The images were acquired with a real-time three-dimensional ultrasound system. The technique was verified by overlaying the three-dimensional ultrasound images with a geometric representation of the cylinder at the calculated position and orientation. The results show that the overlay enhances the image by filling the missing structures.
