ABSTRACT:
A system and method of imaging an imaged subject is provided. The system comprises a controller, and an imaging system including an imaging probe in communication with the controller. The imaging probe includes a transducer array operable to move through a range of motion along a first imaging path at a first speed to acquire a first set of image data. The transducer array can be operable to move through the range of motion along the first imaging path at a second speed greater than the first speed so as to acquire an update image data at a rate faster than acquisition of the first set of image data.
