Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, apparatus and system for enhancing needle visualization in ultrasound imaging. The method comprises setting a scanning depth corresponding to a depth of a part or tissue target in a patient's body; and automatically determining a needle frame steering angle and an ultrasound working frequency for needle frame collection based on the scanning depth.
