Deep Kernel and Image Quality Estimators for Optimizing Robotic Ultrasound Controller using Bayesian Optimization [PDF]
IEEE International Symposium on Medical Robotics (ISMR) 2023, 2023 Ultrasound is a commonly used medical imaging modality that requires expert sonographers to manually maneuver the ultrasound probe based on the acquired image. Autonomous Robotic Ultrasound (A-RUS) is an appealing alternative to this manual procedure in order to reduce sonographers' workload.
