Title
Towards Performing Ultrasound-Guided Needle Biopsies from within a Head-Mounted Display
Abstract
Augmented reality is applied to ultrasound-guided needle biopsy of the human breast. In a tracked stereoscopic head-mounted display, a physician sees the ultrasound imagery “emanating” from the transducer, properly registered with the patient and the biopsy needle. A physician has successfully used the system to guide a needle into a synthetic tumor within a breast phantom and examine a human patient in preparation for a cyst aspiration.
