Abstract
A system and method for compensating for motion with displaying ultrasound motion tracking information are provided. The method includes obtaining ultrasound image data of an imaged object and determining motion tracking information based on the ultrasound image data. The method further includes compensating for motion of the imaged object based on the determined motion tracking information and generating motion compensated ultrasound image data in combination with motion tracking indicators based on the motion compensation.
Claims20
A method for compensating for motion in an imaged ultrasound object, the method comprising:
- obtaining ultrasound image data of an imaged object;
- determining motion tracking information based on the ultrasound image data;
- compensating for motion of the imaged object based on the determined motion tracking information;
- and
- generating motion compensated ultrasound image data in combination with motion tracking indicators based on the motion compensation.
A computer readable medium having computer readable code readable by a machine and with instructions executable by the machine to perform a method of compensating for motion in ultrasound imaging, the method comprising:
- determining motion tracking information of a region of interest of an imaged object;
- using the motion tracking information to reduce motion of the imaged object;
- and
- generating motion compensated ultrasound image data in combination with motion tracking indicators having the reduced motion.
An ultrasound imaging system comprising:
- an ultrasound probe configured to acquire images of an object;
- and
- a processor having a motion compensation module configured to compensate for motion of the imaged object based on determined motion tracking information and generate motion compensated ultrasound image data in combination with motion tracking indicators based on the motion compensation.
