由于其实时、无辐射的三维（3D）成像能力，超声（US）已被纳入各种骨科手术。然而，成像伪影，低信噪比（SNR）和骨边界出现几毫米厚的超声数据的分析困难。本文综述了针对二维（2D）和3D US数据开发的最新骨分割和增强方法。首先，概述了B模式数据中骨表面响应的外观。然后，提供了所提出的技术在所使用的图像信息方面的分类。具体而言，重点是B型超声数据的分割和增强。审查的结论是讨论未来的研究方向和额外的挑战，需要克服，以使这种成像方式在骨科更成功。
Due to its real-time, non-radiation based three-dimensional (3D) imaging capabilities, ultrasound (US) has been incorporated into various orthopedic procedures. However, imaging artifacts, low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and bone boundaries appearing several mm in thickness make the analysis of US data difficult. This paper provides a review about the state-of-the-art bone segmentation and enhancement methods developed for two-dimensional (2D) and 3D US data. First, an overview for the appearance of bone surface response in B-mode data is presented. Then, classification of the proposed techniques in terms of the image information being used is provided. Specifically, the focus is given on segmentation and enhancement of B-mode US data. The review is concluded by discussing future directions of research and additional challenges which need to be overcome in order to make this imaging modality more successful in orthopedics.
