Photograph of the three-dimensional US-guided prostate biopsy tracking system. The system is mounted at the base to a stabilizer while the linkage allows the conventional end-firing TRUS transducer to be manually manipulated about a fixed point in space, to which the centre of the probe tip is aligned. To produce a three-dimensional US image, the transducer is rotated about its long axis for 180°.
