  • Patent number: 12635983
    Abstract: An apparatus for processing ultrasound scan data comprises a processor configured to obtain three-dimensional ultrasound scan data for a volume including a region of interest in a subject, the processor is further configured to: provide the three-dimensional ultrasound scan data for display to the user by providing for display to the user a first two-dimensional view of the region of interest in a predetermined direction such that the first two-dimensional view intersects the first boundary; and upon receiving, via the user interface, a user input indicating a location of the first boundary in the first two-dimensional view of the region of interest, generate a second two-dimensional view of the region of interest corresponding to the slice at the first boundary on basis of the indicated location, and providing for display to the user the second two-dimensional view of the region of interest.

  • Patent number: 12548158
    Abstract: A system for providing contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) images is described. The CEUS system includes an ultrasound probe adapted to provide the ultrasound images; a processor configured to determine out-of-plane frames of the ultrasound images, and remove the out-of-plane frames from the ultrasound images based on a criterion to provide an optimized set of frames; and a display in communication with the processor and configured to display the optimized set of frames.

  • Publication number: 20240008854
    Abstract: A system, method and a tangible, non-transitory computer readable medium adapted to be executed by a processor for providing contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) images is described. The CEUS system includes an ultrasound probe adapted to provide the ultrasound images; a processor; a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores instructions, which when executed by the processor causes the processor to: determine out-of-plane frames of the ultrasound images; remove the out-of-plane frames from the ultrasound images based on a criterion to provide an optimized set of frames; and a display in communication with the processor and configured to display the optimized set of frames.
