Prostate biopsies guided by three-dimensional real-time (4-D) transrectal ultrasonography on a phantom: comparative study versus two-dimensional transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsies [PDF]
European Urology 52, 4 (2007) 1097-104, 2007 OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the accuracy in localisation and distribution of real-time three-dimensional (4-D) ultrasound-guided biopsies on a prostate phantom. METHODS: A prostate phantom was created. A three-dimensional real-time ultrasound system with a 5.9MHz probe was used, making it possible to see several reconstructed orthogonal viewing ...

Endovascular Management in Post Liver Transplant Recipients with Venous Anastomotic Site Stenosis and an Associated Iatrogenic Arterio-portal Fistula: Case Series and Review of Literature [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020 Venous anastomotic site stenosis is a relatively uncommon but an important complication seen in patients post-liver transplant surgery. These stenosis can occur at hepatic vein, portal vein or Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) anastomotic site and may result in ...

High contrast and resolution 3-D ultrasonography with a clinical linear transducer array scanned in a rotate-translate geometry [PDF]
Applied Sciences, MDPI, 2021, 11 (2), pp.493, 2020 We propose a novel solution for volumetric ultrasound imaging using single-side access 3-D synthetic-aperture scanning of a clinical linear array. This solution is based on an advanced scanning geometry and a software-based ultrasound platform. The rotate-translate scanning scheme increases the elevation angular aperture by pivoting the array [-45 ...

A Passive Variable Impedance Control Strategy with Viscoelastic Parameters Estimation of Soft Tissues for Safe Ultrasonography [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In the context of telehealth, robotic approaches have proven a valuable solution to in-person visits in remote areas, with decreased costs for patients and infection risks. In particular, in ultrasonography, robots have the potential to reproduce the skills required to acquire high-quality images while reducing the sonographer's physical efforts.
