Abstract

We propose a probe localization method only from ultrasound (US) image sequences using deep learning for three-dimensional (3D) US image reconstruction. The proposed method employs a convolutional neural network (CNN) to estimate the motion of the probe from two US images. Our CNN architecture consists of two parts: inplane and out-of-plane probe motion estimation. Two loss functions are introduced to guarantee the consistency of estimated motion of the probe between multiple frames. Through experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed method exhibits efficient performance on probe localization compared with the conventional method.
