Abstract:Objective. Ultrasound-assisted orthopaedic navigation holds promise due to its non-ionizing feature, portability, low cost, and real-time performance. To facilitate the applications, it is critical to have accurate and real-time bone surface segmentation. Nevertheless, the imaging artifacts and low signal-to-noise ratios in the tomographical B-mode ultrasound (B US) images-create substantial challenges in bone surface detection. In this study, we present an end-to-end lightweight US bone segmentation network (… Show more
