Study on volume measurement of 3-D ultrasound imaging system using fan-scan probe / 中国医疗器械杂志

ABSTRACT

This paper addressed the volume measurement of 3D ultrasound imaging system. Two different phantoms used in the measurement of volume of the 3D ultrasound imaging system were built, i.e., water phantom and agar phantom. The experiments demonstrated that as the increase of scan depth, the volume measurement accuracy is varied from 4% to 7% in water and 6% to 10% in agar. The phantoms and the volume measurement of the 3D ultrasound imaging system provides a basis for the establishment of testing standard and clinical application of 3D ultrasound imaging system.
