METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OBTAINING AN ULTRASOUND VOLUME FROM BI-PLANE ULTRASOUND SCANNING

Abstract: systems and methods for acquiring an ultrasound volume comprising acquiring sequential bi-plane ultrasound images in a first direction using an ultrasound probe of an ultrasound system, the sequential bi-plane ultrasound images comprising first ultrasound image planes or first ultrasound image volumes along a first plane and second ultrasound image planes or second ultrasound image volumes along a second plane, the first plane corresponding to the first direction and the second plane corresponding to a second direction, calculating one or more first displacements in the first direction of the sequential bi-plane ultrasound images during the acquisition, positioning the second ultrasound image planes or the second ultrasound image volumes sequentially, wherein the second ultrasound image planes or the second ultrasound image volumes are positioned according to the one or more first displacements, and generating the ultrasound volume by combining the second ultrasound image planes or the second ultrasound image volumes.
