Abstract

A method is provided for recording or representing captured ultrasound-derived information. The method is based on obtaining positioning information related to an ultrasound probe during execution of an ultrasound examination, and using this to associate captured data samples, or information derived therefrom, with anatomical position information for the data samples. The link between the two is achieved using an anatomical model which can relate probe surface position with anatomical body structure underlying the surface. A map can be generated of the obtained data as a function of position across the surface of the anatomical body. i.e. effectively a projection of the data onto the object 2D surface.
