Hello all, Apologies if this something answered in the past, I have been digging old forum threads and scratching my head for quite some time now. I am currently trying to render a 3D surface from a series of(unfortunately) relatively low resolution deep ultrasound images. I am currently able to: …

Ultrasound images of real tissues are usually so noisy that 3D visualization requires segmentation. The only exception is when you image fluid-filled cavities (such as cardiac images) or phantom images. See for example live 3D ultrasound volume reconstruction and visualization of spine phantom in S…

If you tell us more about your application (what anatomy you would like to visualize, for what purpose) then we can advise how to implement it in Slicer.

[image] lassoan: Note that SlicerIGT provides real-time tracked 2D ultrasound display in Slicer and can reconstruct volumes from arbitrarily oriented and spaced images. Thanks for the answer! I had been looking at SlicerIGT but as I do not have tracking equipment and only access to recorded …

Fetus in uterus should be possible to visualize without segmentation. For $3000 you can get a good quality optical tracker (Optitrack Duo), but if you don’t want to invest that much then you can also use an orientation sensor (PhidgetSpatial, $150; provides orientation with sub-degree accuracy), or…

Thank you very much for the detailed information. I will be looking into acquiring one of these trackers, the PhidgetSpatial actually does look like it would bring quite decent accuracy, and proper SlicerIGT support. Pending acquiring and testing this hardware, is there any workflows for doing gray…

Model generation from grayscale volume: switch to Segment editor module, create initial segmentation with Threshold effect, and follow up with Islands effect to remove speckle and Smoothing effect to reduce noise. If in Threshold effect you cannot find a threshold value that gives decent results, th…
