Abstract: An ultrasound system has user selectable tissue specific presets by which a user can condition the ultrasound system to be optimized for specific types of diagnostic exams. After an exam type has been selected and the exam commenced, a user manipulates imaging and workflow controls to better visualize the target anatomy. The user has the choice of setting up the system so that imaging and workflow settings are maintained when the tissue specific presets are changed, or to reset the imaging and workflow settings to default values upon a change of the tissue specific presets.
