    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a Time Gain Compenstaion (TGC) feature in an ultrasound device using a touchpad or similar device, which eliminates the need for mechanical potentiometers. The touchpad is segmented into one or more rows, wherein each row is mapped to a corresponding depth of an image. In order to set a required TGC gain setting of a particular depth of the image, a user moves his/her finger across the face of the touchpad such that the desired gain curve can be set. Finer adjustments can be done by moving the finger in the desired horizontal area of the touchpad. The mapping of the effective depths is indicated by horizontal lines on the touchpad as well as on the screen.

    Abstract: An ultrasound scanning guidance method includes acquiring an image by an ultrasound probe of a target organ during an ultrasound scanning procedure. The acquired image corresponds to a pose of the target organ in an acquired scan plane. The method further includes processing the image by a guidance unit to determine an anatomical context around the target organ based on the acquired image. The processing the image also includes determining a relative location of the acquired scan plane with reference to a standard scan plane based on the pose of the target organ and the anatomical context. The processing further includes generating scanning guidance based on the relative location of the acquired scan plane. The scanning guidance includes information to move the probe towards a standard pose of the target organ. The method also includes presenting the scanning guidance by an output device for aiding continuance of the scanning procedure.
