Real-time ultrasonography simulator based on 3D CT-scan images

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2005:111:191-3.

Abstract

A new method for real-time simulation of ultrasonography is presented. This method uses directly 3D enhanced helical CT-scan images. The originality of this method is that it can be run directly on real patient data with no need of any pretreatment.
