Abstract

A three dimensional transrectal ultrasound imaging system has been developed. The proposed system is aimed at monitoring for the prostate and providing three-dimensional ultrasound image for prostate biopsy and therapy. The device contains mechanical device and control circuit for the rotation of the probe. In addition, a two dimensional ultrasound machine for 2D ultrasound imaging is used and the software system for the reconstruction of three-dimensional ultrasound image based on PC is developed. Experiments are performed in phantom to validate our prototype. The 3D scan of the agar phantom produces minimal geometric distortion. In the future, our system will be tested on patients.
