Abstract
A system and method for displaying ultrasound motion tracking information are provided. The method includes obtaining three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound image data of a scanned object. The 3D ultrasound image data includes motion tracking information. The method further includes transforming the 3D ultrasound image data with the motion tracking information to a two-dimensional (2D) map projection and generating a 2D map based on the 2D map projection.
Claims22
A method for providing ultrasound information, the method comprising:
- obtaining three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound image data of a scanned object, the 3D ultrasound image data including motion tracking information;
- transforming the 3D ultrasound image data with the motion tracking information to a two-dimensional (2D) map projection;
- and
- generating a 2D map based on the 2D map projection.
A user interface comprising:
- a two-dimensional (2D) map portion corresponding to a tracked surface model of a three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaged object;
- and
- a tracked motion display portion within the 2D map portion displaying grayscale motion information representative of tracked motion of the imaged object based on the tracked surface model.
An ultrasound imaging system comprising:
- an ultrasound probe configured to acquire three-dimensional (3D) images of an object;
- and
- a processor having a motion tracking module configured to generate a two-dimensional (2D) map projection based on grayscale motion data from the 3D images.
