Abstract
A system and method for enhancing ultrasound images acquired at a low acoustic power to simulate an acquisition at a high acoustic power is provided. The method may include acquiring, by an ultrasound system, a first ultrasound image at a first acoustic power. The method may include processing, by at least one processor, the first ultrasound image to generate a second ultrasound image simulating a second acoustic power that is greater than the first acoustic power. The method may include presenting the second ultrasound image simulating the second acoustic power at a display system.
