Abstract
The present invention provides a method and a system for processing ultrasonic data. The method comprises: obtaining (210) a B-mode ultrasonic image; setting (220) a first ROI on the ultrasonic image according to a first input received from a user; measuring (230) elasticity-related data for the first ROI by using a shear wave ultrasonic imaging technique; generating (240) a second ROI on the ultrasonic image on the basis of the first ROI; and extracting image features for the second ROI from the ultrasonic image.
