Device for acquiring a sequence of ultrasonograms and associated method

A device for assisting in creating a sequence of ultrasound images of the heart, configured to receive in real time ultrasound images acquired by an ultrasound probe connected to said device, and comprising:

• a first calculator, associated with a first memory, for implementing a classifier configured to classify in real time the ultrasound images received in real time by the device and to associate each image with a class for generating a quality indicator as a function of said associated class;
• a display for, in real time, displaying the received ultrasound images and for displaying the last generated quality indicator;
• a second calculator, associated with a second memory, and configured to perform the following steps of:
• when a sequence of a predefined number of received images includes a rate of images associated with a same class greater than a predefined rate, automatically recording said sequence of images in a third memory;
• and
• generating and displaying, on the display in real time, a time indicator representing a number of remaining images to be received to reach said sequence of a predefined number of received images including a rate of images associated with a same class greater than a predefined rate.
