Processing and visualizing three-dimensional ultrasound data

Abstract

This paper describes techniques for the visualization and processing of three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound data. The nature of such data demands specialized algorithms, which differ from those employed for other medical imaging modalities. In this paper, the emphasis is placed on generic processing techniques, which are relevant across a wide range of 3D ultrasound application domains. © 2004 The British Institute of Radiology.
