Medical Ultrasound Training Simulation Using Haptic Force Feedback Mechanism

(By MSc student, Jin Quan Tissa Tan, Supervisor: Arul N. Selvan (mailto:A.N.Selvan@REMOVETHISshu.ac.uk) )

The aim of the project was to create a highly realistic (haptic-based) medical ultrasound training simulator for training a sonographer. The purpose of this simulator is to provide the sense of touch to the user and reconstruct the anatomy as a model using the actual ultrasound data.
