Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automated heart rate measurement for ultrasound motion modes. Dataset may be acquired, based on a particular medical imaging technique, during medical examination of an area that includes heart tissue, medical images may be generated based on the acquired dataset, and the medical images may be displayed. At least one of the medical images or imaging data corresponding to the at least one of the medical images may be processed, in real-time, position of at least one of a plurality of calipers used in measuring heartrate may be automatically determined based on processing of the at least one of the medical images or the imaging data, and the plurality of calipers may be automatically indicated in the medical images, based on the position of the at least one of the plurality of calipers, during the displaying of the medical image.
