Ultrasound probe pose estimation has many applications in medical practice and research. Currently, ultrasound probe pose estimation with respect to the human body requires the use of sensors attached to the ultrasound probe, and may get computationally costly. We explore the use of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to provide sensorless pose estimation. The Ultrasound CNN model proposed in this paper learns to regress the six degree of freedom (6-DoF) camera pose from a single ultrasound image in an end-to-end manner. Ultrasound images are easier to obtain than other forms of medical imaging, but suffer from poor quality, which will be a challenge for the Ultrasound CNN model. The most promising model from our experiments is a 23 layer deep CNN based off of GoogLeNet. In previous literature, CNNs have demonstrated that they can be used to solve complicated out of image plane regression problems. We show how the proposed method can regress the 6DoF pose within a certain degree of accuracy. by Elise Yuan Xue. M.
