Ultrasound image analysis software: Anadvanced approach to analyze multidimensional ultrasound images

Posted On Feb, 15, 2017

Ultrasound image analysis software is increasingly used in the present scenario owing to high demand for 3D&4D medical imaging in the developed as well as developing economies. A significant rise in government funding and investments across a wide array of healthcare services is anticipated to present the market with potential growth opportunities. In addition, growing acceptance amongst surgeons and radiologists toward these tools is also predicted to be one of the prominent growth contributing factors for the market. Moreover, increasing usage of these software, specifically in oncology and cardiology applications is responsible for widened scope for the growth.

3D ultrasound imaging software analysis is emerging at a fast rate in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. An added feature of 3D imaging technology is that it provides clearer images of the baby, which helps enhance the psychological bonding between the mother and the child. 3D ultrasound imaging technology has a great potential in R&D in the field of fetal embryology; however, most of the diagnosis is conducted with 2D technology as recommended by the experts.

In the field of gynecology, ultrasound imaging helps in the visualization of female pelvic organs, including uterus, ovaries, bladder, and others. It enables detection of ovarian torsion and helps with diagnostic capability to identify pelvic inflammatory diseases. Ultrasound imaging software for obstetrics and gynecology helps provide software tools for efficient ultrasound image storage and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) integration. ViewPoint 6 for OB/GYN, by GE Healthcare, is an ultrasound software solution designed to analyze images of obstetrics and gynecology medical examinations.
