This paper describes a learning environment for image-guided prostate biopsies for cancer diagnosis; it is based on an ultrasound probe simulator virtually exploring real datasets obtained from patients. The aim is to make the training of young physicians easier and faster with a tool that combines lectures, biopsy simulations and recommended exercises to master this medical gesture. It is designed particularly to help improve the acquisition of the three-dimensional representation of the prostate required for practicing biopsy sequences. The simulator uses haptic feedback to compute the position of the virtual probe from three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound recorded data. This paper presents the current version of this learning environment.
本文描述了一种用于图像引导前列腺活检以进行癌症诊断的学习环境；它基于一个超声探头模拟器，该模拟器实际上是在探索从患者那里获得的真实数据集。其目的是通过一个结合讲座、活检模拟和推荐练习的工具，使年轻医生的培训更容易、更快速，从而掌握这种医学操作。它的设计尤其旨在帮助提高获取实施活检序列所需的前列腺三维表示的能力。该模拟器使用触觉反馈，根据三维（3D）超声记录数据来计算虚拟探头的位置。本文介绍了这个学习环境的当前版本。
