Technical Overview - 3D Ultrasound and Brachytherapy 3D Ultrasound 3D Clinical Applications and Benefits. Clinical Application Reference Articles. Utilizing a conventional ultrasound machine, and the Life Imaging 3D System, multiple 2D images are rapidly collected and transformed into a 3D volume cube. Acquisition A series of 2D tomographic images are collected, digitized and stored by the Life Imaging 3D system as an ultrasound transducer is moved through an area of interest. Utilizing either freehand or mechanical localizers, images are acquired rapidly with known positions to avoid geometric distortions.
Rapid acquisition is important to avoid artifacts and distortions.
Rapid, precise image acquisition is a critical component of the Life Imaging System and the flexibility of our image acquisition has made the Life Imaging Systems product a leader in the 3D market.

Reconstruction Reconstruction uses the localizer information to build an accurate volume image from the acquired 2-D images. Distortion occurring during the acquisition phases is identified and corrected allowing for precise volume measurements.
