  • Publication number: 20170049416
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a B-mode image, a strain image, and a corresponding correlation image. The method further includes modifying pixel values of the strain image based on a reliability of the strain image, thereby generating a modified strain image. The method further includes displaying the B-mode image. The method further includes superimposing the modified strain image over the B-mode image. A system (100) includes a memory (304) that stores elastography visualization algorithms (306, 308, 310). The system further includes a processor (302) that executes at least one of the elastography visualization algorithms, based on a visualization mode of interest, causing the processor to render at least one of a pixel of a strain image transparent or not at all, wherein the strain image is displayed overlaid over a B-mode image.
