Short summary
Robotic ultrasonic scanning needs to apply an appropriate force for a long time during the acquisition process. Excessive contact force may lead to deformation and even hurt the patient, while insufficient force would lead to poor image quality. We proposed a varying rate hybrid position–impedance control strategy, which can partly play the role of an ultrasound sonographer and serve as a medical assistant to reduce their workload.
