Abstract

Systems and methods for providing guidance to an operator of an ultrasound device that comprises an ultrasound probe housing that contains a plurality of probes. In embodiments, images of inside a body of a patient generated in accordance with reflected ultrasonic waves from the probes are received, the images are processed to identify a needle that has been inserted into the body of the patient, and a notification to the operator is generated based on one or more of a distance or direction of the needle relative to a location of an anatomical part also identified by processing of the images, a distance or direction of the needle relative to an internal target body location also identified by processing of the images, or a distance or direction of the needle relative to a desired path of the needle also identified by processing of the images.
