title: 3D sonography.
abstract: A method of 3-dimensional (3D) sonography (US) is described in this paper. Special emphasis is laid upon the basic problem of generating well-orientated 3D visualizations on the basis of different evaluation techniques. Furthermore, some problems of data acquisition and data processing using US are presented. Alternative solutions thereto are briefly discussed.
