summary image processing device for enhancing ultrasound images; medical imaging system; method for improving ultrasound images; computer program element for controlling an image processing device; and computer readable medium The present invention relates to image processing to improve ultrasound images. To provide image data showing the current situation, for example, in a region of interest of a patient, an image processing device (10) for enhancing ultrasound images is provided comprising an image data input unit (12). ), a central processing unit (14) and a display unit (16). The image input unit is configured to provide an ultrasound image of a region of interest of an object and to provide an x-ray image of the region of interest of the object. the central processing unit is configured to select a predetermined image area on the x-ray image to align the ultrasound image and the x-ray image to detect the predetermined area on the ultrasound image based on the selected predetermined image area aligned and to highlight at least part of the area detected in the ultrasound image to generate an enhanced ultrasound image. The display unit is configured to provide the ultrasound-enhanced image as targeting information in an 18 display area. 1/1
