An ultrasound image display method and System for a two-dimensional monitor ( 40 ) that synchronizes a swiveling or rotating volumetrically rendered three-dimensional ultrasound image ( 76 ) with the oscillation of an oscillating ultrasound object ( 72 ), such as a beating heart or breathing lung. The invention includes swiveling instructions for repetitively swiveling the volumetric ultrasound image ( 76 ) in three-dimensional space. Oscillation frequency measuring instructions ( 108 ) measure the oscillating ultrasound object's oscillation frequency. Synchronization instructions ( 118 ) synchronize a repetitive rotation of the object with the oscillation frequency such that at a predetermined point the beginning of a rotation repetition ( 110 ) coincides with the beginning of an oscillation. The volumetric ultrasound image display ( 76 ) provides the options of a live display, a variably static display, and pre-recorded display capable of continuous replay. |
