ABSTRACT:
An ultrasound imaging system user interface is provided. The interface comprises an imaging-parameter-selection domain comprising a plurality of domain locations, each corresponding to a respective plurality of imaging parameter configurations that affect spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and sensitivity. The interface also comprises an input means for progressively selecting a domain location. The domain can be one-or two-dimensional. In a two-dimensional domain, the plurality of imaging parameter configurations can be at least partially a function of distances from a selected domain location to each corner of the domain. In one embodiment, the domain comprises three corners that correspond to parameters that will provide an image with the best spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and sensitivity, respectively. With the ultrasound imaging system user interface, a user can selectively apply a plurality of ultrasound imaging system parameters.
