Tissue deformation in ultrasound (US) imaging leads to geometrical errors when measuring tissues due to the pressure exerted by probes. Such deformation has an even larger effect on 3D US volumes as the correct compounding is limited by the inconsistent location and geometry. This work proposes a patient-specified stiffness-based method to correct the tissue deformations in robotic 3D US acquisitions. To obtain the patient-specified model, robotic palpation is performed at sampling positions on the tissue. The contact force, US images and the probe poses of the palpation procedure are recorded. The contact force and the probe poses are used to estimate the nonlinear tissue stiffness. The images are fed to an optical flow algorithm to compute the pixel displacement. Then the pixel-wise tissue deformation under different forces is characterized by a coupled quadratic regression. To correct the deformation at unseen positions on the trajectory for building 3D volumes, an interpolation is performed based on the stiffness values computed at the sampling positions. With the stiffness and recorded force, the tissue displacement could be corrected. The method was validated on two blood vessel phantoms with different stiffness. The results demonstrate that the method can effectively correct the force-induced deformation and finally generate 3D tissue geometries

Robotic three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) imaging has been employed to overcome the drawbacks of traditional US examinations, such as high inter-operator variability and lack of repeatability. However, object movement remains a challenge as unex
pected motion decreases the quality of the 3D compounding. Furthermore, attempted adjustment of objects, e.g., adjusting limbs to display the entire limb artery tree, is not allowed for conventional robotic US systems. To address this challenge, we propose a vision-based robotic US system that can monitor the objects motion and automatically update the sweep trajectory to provide 3D compounded images of the target anatomy seamlessly. To achieve these functions, a depth camera is employed to extract the manually planned sweep trajectory after which the normal direction of the object is estimated using the extracted 3D trajectory. Subsequently, to monitor the movement and further compensate for this motion to accurately follow the trajectory, the position of firmly attached passive markers is tracked in real-time. Finally, a step-wise compounding was performed. The experiments on a gel phantom demonstrate that the system can resume a sweep when the object is not stationary during scanning.
We introduce a new problem of retrieving 3D models that are deformable to a given query shape and present a novel deep deformation-aware embedding to solve this retrieval task. 3D model retrieval is a fundamental operation for recovering a clean and
complete 3D model from a noisy and partial 3D scan. However, given a finite collection of 3D shapes, even the closest model to a query may not be satisfactory. This motivates us to apply 3D model deformation techniques to adapt the retrieved model so as to better fit the query. Yet, certain restrictions are enforced in most 3D deformation techniques to preserve important features of the original model that prevent a perfect fitting of the deformed model to the query. This gap between the deformed model and the query induces asymmetric relationships among the models, which cannot be handled by typical metric learning techniques. Thus, to retrieve the best models for fitting, we propose a novel deep embedding approach that learns the asymmetric relationships by leveraging location-dependent egocentric distance fields. We also propose two strategies for training the embedding network. We demonstrate that both of these approaches outperform other baselines in our experiments with both synthetic and real data.

Ultrasound (US) speckles are granular patterns which can impede image post-processing tasks, such as image segmentation and registration. Conventional filtering approaches are commonly used to remove US speckles, while their main drawback is long run
-time in a 3D scenario. Although a few studies were conducted to remove 2D US speckles using deep learning, to our knowledge, there is no study to perform speckle reduction of 3D B-mode US using deep learning. In this study, we propose a 3D dense U-Net model to process 3D US B-mode data from a clinical US system. The models results were applied to 3D registration. We show that our deep learning framework can obtain similar suppression and mean preservation index (1.066) on speckle reduction when compared to conventional filtering approaches (0.978), while reducing the runtime by two orders of magnitude. Moreover, it is found that the speckle reduction using our deep learning model contributes to improving the 3D registration performance. The mean square error of 3D registration on 3D data using 3D U-Net speckle reduction is reduced by half compared to that with speckles.
Object classification with 3D data is an essential component of any scene understanding method. It has gained significant interest in a variety of communities, most notably in robotics and computer graphics. While the advent of deep learning has prog
ressed the field of 3D object classification, most work using this data type are solely evaluated on CAD model datasets. Consequently, current work does not address the discrepancies existing between real and artificial data. In this work, we examine this gap in a robotic context by specifically addressing the problem of classification when transferring from artificial CAD models to real reconstructed objects. This is performed by training on ModelNet (CAD models) and evaluating on ScanNet (reconstructed objects). We show that standard methods do not perform well in this task. We thus introduce a method that carefully samples object parts that are reproducible under various transformations and hence robust. Using graph convolution to classify the composed graph of parts, our method significantly improves upon the baseline.
3D object trackers usually require training on large amounts of annotated data that is expensive and time-consuming to collect. Instead, we propose leveraging vast unlabeled datasets by self-supervised metric learning of 3D object trackers, with a fo
cus on data association. Large scale annotations for unlabeled data are cheaply obtained by automatic object detection and association across frames. We show how these self-supervised annotations can be used in a principled manner to learn point-cloud embeddings that are effective for 3D tracking. We estimate and incorporate uncertainty in self-supervised tracking to learn more robust embeddings, without needing any labeled data. We design embeddings to differentiate objects across frames, and learn them using uncertainty-aware self-supervised training. Finally, we demonstrate their ability to perform accurate data association across frames, towards effective and accurate 3D tracking.
