Abstract

Medical ultrasound is rapidly advancing both through more powerful hardware and software; in combination these allow the modality to become an ever more indispensable point-of-care tool. In this paper, we summarize some recent developments on the image analysis side that are enabled through the proprietary ImFusion Suite software and corresponding software development kit (SDK). These include 3D reconstruction of arbitrary untracked 2D US clips, image filtering and classification, speed-of-sound calibration and live acquisition parameter tuning in a visual servoing fashion.
