ABSTRACT:
An ultrasound system and method are presented for facilitating a reproducible ultrasound imaging environment by reducing the variability in ultrasound parameters as a source of discrepancy when performing serial studies. In this way, an operator can rigorously compare ultrasound images from a single patient and can ensure that a plurality of patients are imaged in the same way. Additionally, an imaging environment can be duplicated on a plurality of ultrasound systems. This is especially helpful in ensuring that several machines are configured in the same way and in tracking down unexpected behavior (e.g., hardware or software bugs or anomalies).
