Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for ultrasound imaging. In one embodiment, a method comprises acquiring, with an ultrasound transducer of a scanning apparatus during an ultrasound scan of a patient, an ultrasound image, detecting, with an artificial intelligence model, a region of interest within the ultrasound image including a possible tumor, acquiring, with the ultrasound transducer, an elastic image of tissue within the region of interest, and displaying, with a display device, the elastic image. In this way, shear wave elastography may be automatically targeted to a region of interest, thereby reducing the processing load for the analysis and enabling a higher elasticity imaging frame rate for three-dimensional ultrasound imaging.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for storing an ultrasonic scan image and an ultrasonic device. The ultrasonic device may include: an image acquiring unit configured to scan a target object to obtain an image; a buffer unit configured to store the obtained image; a processing unit configured to compute a similarity of a frame of the image; and a storage unit, wherein when it is determined that the computed similarity of the frame is less than a threshold, the processing unit stores frames with a similarity equal to or greater than the threshold previous to the frame in the storage unit. Therefore, the image may be stored automatically based upon the similarity information of the frame of the ultrasonic scanning image.

Abstract: An ultrasound imaging equipment comprising a host, a probe connected to the host, a touch screen fixed to the host for providing a user interface, the user interface including a presentation area displaying images and/or various information and a control area displaying virtual buttons, and a user interface adjusting device for automatically adjusting a layout of the user interface based on a relative position between the probe and the touch screen, so as to facilitate a user's usage of the equipment.
