The invention is applicable in probes used in earth resource survey.

The methods may be employed with any suitable ultrasound system.

An external image of an ultrasound volume is generated.

A method and apparatus are provided for ultrasound imaging wherein ultrasound imaging data is acquired at points in a plurality of imaging slices and the ultrasound imaging data is used to determine the relative positions of the slices.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for measuring pressure for an ultrasonography device and a probe for an ultrasonography device comprising the same.

The catheter may be an intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheter.

All forward scan traces are in blue, backward scan traces in red.

A modular, flexible architecture for offering full-field breast ultrasound (FFBU) functionality and general-purpose ultrasound functionality in a single system is described.

The computation means computes trends in the angular dependencies on the angles of deviation between the plurality of ultrasound image data on the basis of the plurality of ultrasound image data.

The synthesis means alters the weighting of the plurality of ultrasound image data according to the trends in the angular dependencies, and synthesizes the plurality of ultrasound image data.

The ultrasonography device 9 is attached to the support device 4.

A system and method is disclosed for rendering an ultrasound volume.
