Abstract
An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system and method are described by which a user can delineate a region of interest () in a colorflow Doppler image. The ultrasound system processes the Doppler pixel information of the region of interest () to produce a spectrogram illustrating motion at the region of interest () as a function of time. In a preferred embodiment the Doppler pixel information is processed by histograms to produce the spectrogram data.
