碩士 === 國立陽明大學 === 生醫光電工程研究所 === 97 === MRI and CT images have achieved 3D image capability. Due to the probe size and measurements environment, ultrasound (US) 3D image scan could only be realized in limit application. The aim of this project is aim to build a whole body 3D US image database to resolve the practical limitation of US 3D scanning images. We proposed a novel approach to generate the computer-simulated US 3D image database of the whole body soft tissue. We prepare to use Proton Density Weighted Image (PDWI) to estimate the density of soft tissue and to simulate the ultrasonic echo signal, and reconstruct US 3D images and build MRI/US dual display system. We expect this system would be useful for clinical US teaching, and training.
