Abstract

A system for allowing a non-skilled user to acquire ultrasound images of internal organs of a human body comprises a scanner, at least one inertial measurement unit (IMU) associated therewith, a processor containing software, and a user interface comprising a display screen and means to accept user's instructions, wherein the software is configured to execute at least one of the following: to produce ultrasound images; to analyze the data; to decide which images are of sufficient quality to be displayed on the display screen; to discard low quality images; to instruct the operator to hold the housing of the scanner in a predetermined manner; to compute the location and attitude of the scanner; to determine if the scanner is being held such that enough pressure is being exerted on the skin to produce an image of sufficient quality; and to effectively provide instructions how to move the scanner correctly in order to obtain satisfactory images.
