摘要:
An ultrasound probe and corresponding method of obtaining motion related data for the ultrasound probe. The probe including a housing, a transducer located inside said housing having transducer elements in a predetermined configuration that generates ultrasound, transmits the generated ultrasound towards an object, and receives echoes that have been reflected from the object, a motion sensing device having a fixed position with respect to said housing and including a sensor configured to generate a movement signal indicative of at least one type of movement of the ultrasound probe, and processing circuitry configured to generate images from the echoes received by the transducer and to correct the generated images by image correlation based on the generated movement signal.
