Abstract
An ultrasound imaging system having an image processor configured to receive at volume data resulting from a three-dimensional ultrasound scan of a body and to provide corresponding display data, an anatomy detector configured to detect a position and orientation of an anatomical object of interest within the volume data, a slice generator for generating a plurality of two-dimensional slices from the volume data, wherein the slice generator is configured to define respective slice locations based on the results of the anatomy detector for the anatomical object of interest so as to obtain a set of two-dimensional standard views of the anatomical object of interest, wherein the slice generator is further configured to define for each two-dimensional standard view which anatomical features of the anatomical object of interest are expected to be contained. An evaluation unit evaluates a quality factor for each of the two-dimensional slices.
