Abstract:
Ultrasound image devices, systems, and methods are provided. An ultrasound imaging system comprising a processor circuit configured to receive, from an ultrasound transducer array, a plurality of images of a patient body at different imaging planes; determine a first imaging plane based on a first image of the plurality of images by applying a first predictive network, wherein a second image of the plurality of images is based on the first imaging plane, and wherein the second image includes an imaging view of at least one of an anatomy of the patient body or a medical device within the anatomy; apply a second predictive network to the second image to generate segmentation data; and output, to a display, a displayed image including an indication of a first portion of the at least one of the anatomy or the medical device based on the segmentation data.
