| dc.description.abstract | In this paper, we report our approaches to implementing an echocardiography simulator for medical training. The simulator provides experience of diagnosis by echocardiography using normal and endoscope probes; the user interface of the simulator consists of a mannequin and dummy probes that provide a feeling of actual diagnostic operation to the user. The simulator is also equipped with functions that are similar to those of real instruments such as diagnostic view modes and color Doppler imaging. Preliminary evaluation by experiment at a clinic of our university hospital suggested that the simulator is promising for use in practical training. | en_US |
