Embodiments for providing a 3D (three-dimensional) ultrasound image based on an ellipsoidal region of interest (ROI) are disclosed. In one embodiment, by way of non-limiting example, an ultrasound system comprises: an ultrasound data acquisition unit configured to transmit and receive ultrasound signals to and from a target object to thereby output a plurality of ultrasound data; a user input unit configured to receive input information; and a processing unit in communication with the ultrasound data acquisition unit and the user input unit, the processing unit being configured to form volume data based on the plurality of ultrasound data, set an ellipsoidal ROI on the volume data based on the input information and render volume data corresponding to the ellipsoidal ROI to thereby form a 3D ultrasound image.
