Resumen
Les techniques de thérapie par ultrasons sont apparues très récemment avec la découverte des ultrasons de haute intensité focalisée. La thrombolyse ultrasonore extracorporelle en fait partie et se base sur la destruction mécanique du thrombus causée par la cavitation acoustique. Cependant, c'est un phénomène mal contrôlé. Ainsi, un meilleur contrôle de l'activité de cavitation et sa localisation pendant la thérapie est essentiel pour considérer le développement d'un dispositif thérapeutique. Un prototype a déjà été conçu et amélioré avec une boucle de rétroaction en temps réel afin de contrôle

Resumen
Three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound is an emerging new technology with numerous clinical applications like measuring the volume of the prostate, monitoring fetal development, or evaluating brain shift during neurosurgery. Ultrasound probe calibration is an obligatory step in order to build 3D volumes from 2D images acquired in a freehand ultrasound system. The role of calibration is to find the transformation that relates the image plane to a sensor attached on the probe. This thesis is a comprehensive review of what has been published in the field of ultrasound probe calibration for 3D u

Resumen
A medical evaluation of physical impairment imposes the additional burden of “labeling” the patient with the condition. The binary nature of the normal versus abnormal label emphasizes difference and can lead to trauma. Understanding differences, however, can lead to the generation of new forms and thus, more sensitive differentiation and representation. Tension is created by exploring different bodily forms—a dialectic between form and essence. I am designing a space that visualizes and illuminates difference as a source of trauma and amplifying the tension by comparing figures that represent

Resumen
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy is a non-invasive therapy method for the treatment of solid tumours. One of the main barriers to wider clinical adoption of HIFU is the lack of reliable and cost-efficient therapy monitoring. One promising technique is acoustic radiation force (ARF) ultrasound elastography, which relies on the temperature dependence of tissue properties to affect displacement amplitudes. An extensive literature review of tissue acoustic, thermal and mechanical properties identified an absence of data on the temperature dependence of the viscoelastic properties.

Malignant gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumors in adults. Contrarily to brain metastases that have clear borders, malignant gliomas are poorly circumscribed lesions because they diffusely infiltrate the brain parenchyma. When possible, standard treatment of gliomas includes surgical resection, though surgeons unintentionally leave behind some of the tumor more than 50% of the time. Two factors are mainly responsible for this situation. First, most current neuronavigation systems are based on preoperative images; these systems become less accurate as the surgery progresses

Resumen
In this thesis, various alternatives to standard sensor systems are developed, with particular emphasis on improving the practicality of freehand 3D ultrasound in a clinical environment. The novel algorithms presented here are able to position a sequence of image frames qualitatively correctly even when the direction of out-of-plane motion is allowed to vary, which was not previously possible. Existing work on the subject of six-degree-of-freedom sensorless reconstruction found that it is possible to take unbiased measurements from a sensorless reconstruction, provided it is constrained to hav

Resumen
In this thesis, we investigate how to achieve an accurate reliable and rapid probe calibration. Our first step is to improve the reliability of an accurate calibration technique from the literature. The Cambridge phantom, a variant of plane-based calibration, has been shown to be one of the most accurate calibration techniques. Unfortunately, calibrations performed using plane-based techniques are often unreliable. We show how it is possible to provide feedback on the reliability of the calibration. This allows the user to rectify an unreliable calibration. Having achieved an accurate and reli

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2010.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 129-131).<br>An hand-held force controlled ultrasound probe has been developed. The controller maintains a prescribed contact force between the probe and a patient's body. The device will enhance the diagnostic capability of free-hand elastography, swept-force compound imaging, and make it easier for a technician to acquire repeatable (i.e. directly comparable) images over time. The mechanical system consists of an ultr

Thesis (PhD)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Although transthoracic ultrasonography is a well established modality, it is still underutilised by chest physicians. The aim of this research project was to investigate the feasibility, diagnostic yield and safety of ultrasound(US)-assisted transthoracic biopsies performed by clinicians in various settings relevant to daily practice of respiratory medicine. We conducted four clinical trials which are summarised below: 1. In a prospective study on the feasibility of US-assisted transthoracic fine needle aspiration (TTFN
