3d usct iii open dataset (phantom 4)

Abstract: 3D USCT III (3rd generation) experimental data. The following datasets are included: 1: Gelatin phantom with four inclusions made from PVC (spheres of different size 8 mm to 22 mm) 2: Empty measurement with the same acquisition parameters as the gelatin phantom. TechnicalRemarks: In order to utilize the data, we provide a MATLAB interface which has been updated for the USCT 3rd generation format. It can be accessed via GitHub repository at https://github.com/KIT-3DUSCT/3D-USCT-III-access-script. The source code is provided under 3-clause BSD-license.

The interface software enables retrieving A-scans, emitter and receiver positions, and additional meta data as e.g. ultrasound pulse information, temperature distribution in water. For questions and bug reports regarding the MATLAB interface please use the issue tracker or contact us via e-Mail.
