Abstract
An ultrasound imaging system configured to generate a 3D ultrasound image of a target area is disclosed herein. The ultrasound imaging system includes a console including one or more processors and non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon one or more logic modules. The ultrasound imaging system further includes an ultrasound probe, configured to acquire a plurality of ultrasound images of a target area, the ultrasound probe coupled to the console by an ultrasound probe connector having optical fiber including one or more core fibers, the ultrasound probe being a point of reference for the console to generate a three-dimensional visualization by stitching together the plurality of ultrasound images, starting from the point of reference.
