Freehand 2D Ultrasound Probe Calibration for Image Fusion with 3D MRI/CT
The aim of this work is to implement a simple freehand ultrasound (US) probe
calibration technique. This will enable us to visualize US image data during
surgical procedures using augmented reality. The performance of the system was
evaluated with different experiments using two different pose estimation
techniques. A near-millimeter accuracy can be achieved with the proposed
approach. The developed system is cost-effective, simple and rapid with low
calibration erro
