Abstract

Disclosed is a method () of visualizing a sequence of 3D ultrasound images of an object () in motion, wherein said motion is a complex motion composed of motion components from a plurality of origins, the method comprising acquiring () said sequence of 3D ultrasound images; providing () a motion tracking model modelling a contribution to the complex motion, said contribution originating from a subset of said motion components; determining () said complex motion from the first and second 3D ultrasound images; and visualizing () a contribution of the motion tracking model to the complex motion of said object in order to obtain a motion-decomposed visualization of said complex motion. A computer program product for implementing such a method on an ultrasound system and an ultrasound system including such a computer program product are also disclosed.
