<p>A system and method for generating for display a number of standard 2D echocardiographic views from 3D image data acquired in respect of a subject. In one embodiment, a medical practitioner positions the 3D probe so that one visualisation plane corresponds to a standard 2D view and then pre-calculated relative coordinates are used to automatically locate and generate other standard 2D views. Alternatively, a landmark extraction algorithm is used to identify specific features, from which the respective visualisation planes can be located and the standard 2D views generated.</p> |
