Method and system for improved visualization and selection of representative ultrasound images by automatically detecting B-lines and scoring images of ultrasound scans

摘要

The ultrasound device acquires a video clip having a plurality of images in a selected zone of a set of lungs. The ultrasonic device detects each B line (942, 944) of the plurality of images, and detects the width of each B line. The ultrasound device classifies the B lines into a first group and a second group based on the width, assigns a score based on the number of B lines and the width of each B line, and a second group in each of the images. The B line of the first group is highlighted so as to be different from the B line. The ultrasound device identifies a representative image from the plurality of images and displays the identified representative image (940). The highlighting can include overlaying a pair of indicators (950, 951) on a pair of edges in each of the B lines. [Selection diagram] FIG.
