Abstract
Ultrasound-based interventions require experience and good hand-eye coordination. Especially for non-experts,correctly guiding a handheld probe towards a target,and staying there,poses a remarkable challenge. We augment a commercial vision-based instrument guidance system with haptic feedback to keep operators on target. A user study shows significant improvements across deviation,time,and ease-of-use when coupling standard ultrasound imaging with visual feedback,haptic feedback,or both.
