Many interventional surgical procedures rely on medical imaging to visualise
and track instruments. Such imaging methods not only need to be real-time
capable, but also provide accurate and robust positional information. In
ultrasound applications, typically only two-dimensional data from a linear
array are available, and as such obtaining accurate positional estimation in
three dimensions is non-trivial. In this work, we first train a neural network,
using realistic synthetic training data, to estimate the out-of-plane offset of
an object with the …
