Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for tracking points in an ultrasound image. SOLUTION: An ultrasound system comprises a position sensing module 130, an image tracking module 124, a display 118 and a user interface 120. The position sensing module detects spatial information associated with a volume of data. The display displays first and second images based on the volume of data. The first and second images comprise first and second portions of the volume of data, and the first and second portions are at least partially different with respect to each other. The user interface selects a first image tracking point on the first image. The first image tracking point is indicated on the first image with a first indicator. The image tracking module tracks the first image tracking point within the volume of data. The image tracking module indicates on the display a spatial relationship of the first image tracking point to the second image. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
