Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for assessing image quality of ultrasound images. In one example, a method includes determining a probe position quality parameter of an ultrasound image, the probe position quality parameter representative of a level of quality of the ultrasound image with respect to a position of an ultrasound probe used to acquire the ultrasound image, determining one or more acquisition settings quality parameters of the ultrasound image, each acquisition settings quality parameter representative of a respective level of quality of the ultrasound image with respect to a respective acquisition setting used to acquire the ultrasound image, and providing feedback to a user of the ultrasound system based on the probe position quality parameter and/or the one or more acquisition settings quality parameters, the probe position quality parameter and each acquisition settings quality parameter determined based on output from separate image quality assessment models.
