Abstract
Systems and methods for controlling contrast and time gain compensation (TGC) with a unified control. A system can include a first non-transitory computer storage medium for storing an ultrasound image, a second non-transitory computer storage medium for storing computer-executable instructions, and a computer hardware configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least cause presentation of the ultrasound image on a user interface of a display device using an initial contrast value for the ultrasound image and an initial time gain compensation value for at least two bands in the ultrasound image, each band being a portion of the displayed ultrasound image corresponding to a range of distances from an ultrasound scanner that generated the ultrasound image, and generate and cause display of a unified contrast/TGC (UTGC) control bar on the user interface for adjusting contrast and TGC of the displayed ultrasound image.
