Dear Johannes,

The plugin org.mitk.gui.qt.ultrasound[1] allows you to display and update an 
ultrasound image in MITK. This is usually done via a frame grabber, which is 
controlled in the background using OpenCV. Alternatively, the data can be 
transferred using OpenIGTLink (e.g. from the Public software Library for 
UltraSound, PLUS), which is supported by the plugin org.mitk.gui.qt.ultrasound. 
Special devices that offer a research interface can also be integrated via 
software, but this is more complex.

The geometry of the ultrasound image can be adapted in MITK. For example, the 
plugin org.mitk.gui.qt.igt.app.ultrasoundtrackingnavigation uses location 
information from a tracking system in connection with ultrasound images. In 
principle, this should work similarly with IMUs. To control special hardware, 
it is always worth taking a closer look at PLUS. Using OpenIGTLink, data can be 
sent from PLUS to MITK for further processing.

The two plugins mentioned org.mitk.gui.qt.ultrasound and 
org.mitk.gui.qt.igt.app.ultrasoundtrackingnavigation are not activated by 
default in the MITK release. To build them, they must be activated in Cmake in 
a MITK build. The best way to do this is to select MITK_BUILD_CONFIGURATION = 
mitkNavigationModules at superbuild level, then everything that is required 
(OpenIGTLink, OpenCV) will also be built.

Best,

Alfred

Betreff: [Extern] - [mitk-users] Question about using Ultrasound with IMUs


Hello there,

I’m doing my internship right know and I’m searching for a program which can 
visualize live Ultrasound images. Furthermore, I want to Track that Ultrasound 
probe with an IMU, so I know how the probe is moving in a coordinate system.
Is this possible with your program?
If yes, which IMUs does your program support? Is it possible to add my own IMU 
and how?

I hope you can help me with my issues. Thank you!

Kind regards,

Johannes Duttenhöfner
