Abstract
An ultrasound system (101) includes a memory (151) that stores instructions; a processor (152) that executes the instructions; and a display (180). In response to being executed by the processor (152), the instructions cause the ultrasound system (101) to: capture ultrasound imagery during an ultrasound examination; identify anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination; and generate ultrasound images supplemented a list of one or more anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination.

An ultrasound system, comprising:
- a memory that stores instructions;
- a processor that executes the instructions;
- and
- a display, wherein in response to being executed by the processor, the instructions cause the ultrasound system to:
- capture ultrasound imagery during an ultrasound examination;
- identify anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination;
- and
- generate ultrasound images supplemented with a list of one or more anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination.
A method for supplementing ultrasound images, the method comprising:
- capturing ultrasound imagery during an ultrasound examination;
- identifying, by a controller with a processor executing instructions from a memory, anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination;
- and
- generating ultrasound images supplemented with a list of one or more anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination.
A controller for an ultrasound system, comprising:
- a memory that stores instructions;
- and
- a processor that executes the instructions, wherein in response to being executed by the processor, the instructions cause the controller to:
- control an ultrasound probe to capture ultrasound imagery during an ultrasound examination;
- identify anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination;
- and
- generate ultrasound images supplemented with a list of one or more anatomical features captured in the ultrasound imagery during the ultrasound examination.
