Experimental setup for evaluation of ultrasound simulation methods

Abstract

Over the last decade, several ultrasound simulation methods have been developed specifically to be used in training simulators for medical ultrasound imaging. However, the evaluation of these simulation methods has not been devoted a lot of attention in the litterature. Here we present an experimental setup facilitating such evaluation. The setup produces true ultrasound images corresponding to the simulations, thus allowing an intuitive assessment of the simulation method by direct comparison of true and simulated ultrasound images.
