Abstract

In the paper a measurement system for the carotid occlusion volume, based on 3-D ultrasound imaging is proposed. The system has been designed taking into account two main tasks: computational effort and measurement accuracy. The analysis of the uncertainty of the whole measurement chain and first xperimental results on carotid images are given.
