The aim of the project was to create a highly realistic (haptic-based) medical ultrasound training simulator for training a sonographer. The purpose of this simulator is to provide the sense of touch to the user and reconstruct the anatomy as a model using the actual ultrasound data. | The aim of the project was to create a highly realistic (haptic-based) medical ultrasound training simulator for training a sonographer.

Medical Image Processing
Digitizing
To perform measurement with a caliper such as the Microscribe, it is necessary to understand the kinematic chain of the system.
3D data processing
The MMVL is doing research on 3D Medical Image Processing. Exspecially for processing of 3D data, the Visualisation Toolkit has proven to be useful. Iso Surface Extraction is an example, which demonstrates, how powerful VTK is.
Ultrasound
Equipment:
Portable PC Based Ultrasound machine: Echo Blaster 128 INT-2Z Kit
Convex Ultrasound probe(3MHz to 7MHz): C4.5/50/128Z

Medical Ultrasound Training Simulation Using Haptic Force Feedback Mechanism (By MSc student, Jin Quan Tissa Tan, Supervisor: Arul N. Selvan )
The aim of the project was to create a highly realistic (haptic-based) medical ultrasound training simulator for training a sonographer. The purpose of this simulator is to provide the sense of touch to the user and reconstruct the anatomy as a model using the actual ultrasound data.
