Abstract

A system may perform operations including receiving data comprising a plurality of image frames sampled from a volume data set of an imaged anatomical region displayable on a monitor. The plurality of image frames may correspond to a plurality of volume data reconstruction images displayed on the monitor in a series of image slices of a scrollable image stack. The operations also include analyzing the plurality of image frames to detect image features that are characteristic of a static view region in each image frame and evaluating the detected image features to determine a relative location of the detected one or more image features with respect to a scrolling view region for each image frame. The operations also include determining an ordered set of the image frames sorted according to a sequence based on relative locations and producing processed video data comprising the ordered set of the image frames.
