Our spatially tracked 3DUS system shows potential utility as an alternative, accurate, and feasible whole-breast approach with the capability for bedside POC imaging. Future work is focused on reducing misregistration errors due to motion and tissue deformations, to develop a robust spatially tracked whole-breast 3DUS acquisition protocol, then exploring its clinical utility for screening high-risk women with dense breasts.
