Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for turbulence monitoring during ultrasound scanning. In one example, during scanning with an ultrasound probe, a turbulence amount between two successive frames may be monitored, and in response to the turbulence amount at or above the higher threshold, deployment of the one or more image interpretation protocols may be stopped or delayed until the turbulence amount decreases below the higher threshold.
