Abstract: A facility for automatically establishing measurement location controls for Doppler ultrasound studies is described. The facility receives a first ultrasound image, and user input selecting an anatomical structure appearing in it. The facility performs localization to determine the location of the selected anatomical structure in the initial image, and determines a first placement of measurement location controls relative to the structure. On the ultrasound machine, the facility invokes one or more first Doppler ultrasound modes using the first placement. The facility receives a second ultrasound image produced by the ultrasound machine using the one or more first modes; determines a flow location and direction based on the second ultrasound image; and determines a second placement relative to the flow location. The facility invokes one or more second Doppler ultrasound modes using the second placement, and receives results from the invocation of the one or more second Doppler ultrasound modes.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and related computer program products for facilitating the generation of a document, such as a scientific poster, to be viewed by a community of human viewers in association with a hosted event, such as a scientific conference, are described, the generated document conforming to document configuration guidelines previously established for that hosted event. Provided in one preferred embodiment is an interactive document creation tool that constrains user input of content data according to constraints specified in the document configuration guidelines and then automatically generates the document from the content data in compliance with those document configuration guidelines, sparing substantial user time and effort particularly when a pre-existing antecedent electronic document is used as a basis for the content data.
