Assessment of 3D Transperineal Ultrasound Imaging With Matrix Array Transducers as a Potential Imaging Modality for Adaptive Prostate and Post-Prostatectomy Radiotherapy

SPECIFIC STUDY AIMS

1. To evaluate congruence between pelvic anatomical structures segmented on MRI and/or CT
scans co-registered with transperineal US scans acquired with an optically and/or
electromagnetically tracked matrix array ultrasound transducer.

2. To estimate the achievable accuracy of anatomy tracking based on 3D US matrix-array
transducer imaging and grey-level based image registration algorithms.
