  • Patent number: 8777856
    Abstract: An ultrasound diagnostic system is provided that includes an ultrasound imaging device having an ultrasound probe that is configured to provide an ultrasound image of the heart during an ultrasound imaging session. The diagnostic system also includes a user interface including an operator display that is configured to concurrently display a reference image frame and the ultrasound image of the ultrasound imaging session. The user interface is configured to receive operator inputs to adjust a view of the heart in the ultrasound image and acquire a set of image frames of the heart. The diagnostic system also includes a cardiac analyzer that is configured to automatically identify a measurement frame from the set of image frames. The measurement frame includes the heart at a designated orientation and at a designated cardiac condition.

  • Publication number: 20130281854
    Abstract: A medical diagnostic system is provided that includes an electrocardiograph (ECG) device and an ultrasound imaging device. The diagnostic system also includes a user interface having a display. The user interface is configured to receive operator inputs from an operator of the diagnostic system, wherein the user interface is configured to show on the display a plurality of different screens to the operator during a workflow. The screens include user-selectable elements that are configured to be activated by the operator during the workflow. The user interface is configured to display the different screens to the operator in a predetermined manner to guide the operator through the workflow to obtain an electrocardiogram of the heart of the patient and an ultrasound image of the heart. The user interface also configured to guide the operator to obtain structural measurements of the heart based on the ultrasound image.
