    Abstract: According to an aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method of operating a visual data delivery system. The method comprises: processing (901) a sequence of 3-dimensional, 3D, images of a body to generate first 2-dimensional, 2D, image data representing a first sequence of 2D images of the body, wherein the 2D images are images of the body in a 2D image plane through the 3D images, and wherein an amount of data representing the first 2D image data is less than an amount of data representing the 3D images from which the first 2D image data is generated; sending (903) the first 2D image data to a display system for display of the first sequence of 2D images of the body by the display system; receiving (905) a 2D image plane adjustment indication from the display system, wherein the 2D image plane adjustment indication indicates a required rotation and/or translation of the 2D image plane; processing (907) the sequence of 3D images and/or a further sequence of 3D images to generate second 2D image data representing a second sequence of 2D images of the body, wherein the 2D images in the second sequence of 2D images are images of the body in the rotated and/or translated 2D image plane; and sending (909) the second 2D image data to the display system for display of the second sequence of 2D images of the body by the display system.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasound system for imaging a volumetric region comprising a region of interest (ROI). The system comprises a probe; an ultrasound wave controlling unit adapted to control ultrasound wave transmission and provide ultrasound image data of the volumetric region; an image processor; and a ROI identifier, which is adapted to generate identification data indicating the ROI within the volumetric region; wherein the ultrasound wave transmission is configurable by a plurality of use cases in response to respective identifiers of said use cases, each use case being associated with a particular imaging procedure and comprising an anatomical model for said imaging procedure; and wherein the ROI identifier is configurable by the respective anatomical models of said use cases. A method of configuring such an ultrasound system is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A method is provided for generating an ultrasound image of an anatomical region having a volume. First image low resolution image data is enhanced by adapting a 3D anatomical model to the image data to generate a second, greater, quantity of ultrasound image data in respect of the anatomical region. The enhanced volumetric information is then displayed. An anatomical model is thus used to complete partial image data thereby increasing the image resolution, so that a high resolution volumetric image can be displayed with a reduced image capture time.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to latency compensation for image processing devices. In order to assign overlay data to frames of a raw image stream (210), past frames within a selection of frames of the raw image stream are considered, which past frames already underwent image processing. A current frame of the raw image stream (210) is compared to the past frames contained in the selection of frames, and that one of the past frames is identified that is most similar to the current frame. Overlay data from the identified past frame are chosen and assigned to the current frame. Thus, the current frame can be presented together with the assigned overlay data chosen from the most similar past frame and without the need to wait for the result of a computationally expensive and time-consuming image processing of the current frame.

    Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system is for determining stroke volume and/or cardiac output. The imaging system may include a transducer unit for acquiring ultrasound data of a heart of a subject (or an input for receiving the acquired ultrasound data), and a controller. The controller is adapted to implement a two-step procedure, the first step being an initial assessment step, and the second being an imaging step having two possible modes depending upon the outcome of the assessment. In the initial assessment procedure, it is determined whether regurgitant ventricular flow is present. This is performed using Doppler processing techniques applied to an initial ultrasound data set. If regurgitant flow does not exist, stroke volume is determined using segmentation of 3D ultrasound image data to identify and measure the volume of the left or right ventricle at each of end systole and end-diastole, the difference between them giving a measure of stroke volume. If regurgitant flow does exist, stroke volume is determined using Doppler techniques applied to ultrasound data continuously collected throughout a cardiac cycle.
