Automatic method for evaluating the accuracy in US-based navigation. a The phantom with a single wire cross in the middle of the water tank and a reference frame in the front, and a US probe imaging the wire. b 1-mm-diameter model of the nominal wire cross in green, and an US volume of the wire cross in red. A mismatch of about 1 mm can be seen c Centerlines of the nominal (green) and US (red) wire crosses. d ICP registration between the two centerlines, initial correspondence shown. e After convergence. US centerlines now match the nominal. f The displacement is equal to the NSA
