Abstract
The present embodiments relate generally to systems and methods for performing a measurement on an ultrasound image displayed on a touchscreen device. The method may include: receiving, via the touchscreen device, first input coordinates corresponding to a point on the ultrasound image; using the first input coordinates as a seed for performing a contour identification process on the ultrasound image, wherein the contour identification process performs contour evolution using morphological operators to iteratively dilate from the first input coordinates; upon identification of a contour from the contour identification process, placing measurement calipers on the identified contour; and storing a value identified by the measurement calipers as the measurement.
