    摘要: A computer-implemented method of ultrasound imaging. The method comprises obtaining 3D volume acquisitions of an anatomical structure with a 3D ultrasound probe and, between 3D volume acquisitions, switching the 3D ultrasound probe to a 2D scan mode and controlling the 3D ultrasound probe, in the 2D scan mode, to obtain a 2D slice of the anatomical structure. The method further comprises extracting features from the 2D slice and generating a representation of an enhanced 3D volume, wherein the enhanced 3D volume combines a 3D volume acquisition and the features extracted from the 2D slice.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a system and method for determining a health metric of an imaging system. The method is a computer implemented method and includes receiving (110) sensor data acquired during a diagnostic sequence comprising multiple diagnostic intervals, wherein a different set of subsystems of the imaging system (60) are active during each of the diagnostic intervals, and wherein a respective subset of sensor data is acquired during each of the diagnostic intervals. The method further comprises analyzing (120) the subsets of sensor data to determine the health metric based on a combination of subsets of sensor data acquired during different diagnostic intervals by performing a mathematical operation between at least two subsets of sensor data acquired during mutually different diagnostic intervals. The method may comprise determining (130) a health status of the imaging system based on the health metric.

    摘要: Proposed concepts thus aim to provide schemes, solutions, concept, designs, methods and systems pertaining to representing a predicted length of a heart valve leaflet. This can be achieved by obtaining both a 3D model representative of the geometry of a heart valve leaflet and a predicted length of the heart valve leaflet. The 3D model can then be adapted based on the predicted length to generate an adapted 3D model representing an extension of the heart valve leaflet to the predicted length.
