title: [3-D ultrasound--data acquisition and representation].
abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) workstation for data acquisition, processing, registration and presentation of 3D ultrasound information is described. The ultrasound images needed for further processing are generated by a standard diagnostic ultrasound system. The 3D transducers used here include frequencies of 3.5, 5 and 7.5 MHz. The presentation of reconstructed 3D data is performed by computer-assisted projection of volumetric data or by the presentation of user-selectable slices from the 3D object. Besides improved diagnosis of 3D structures, the system enables precise volume measurements.
