Abstract

Various methods and systems are provided for generating a context awareness graph for a medical scan image. In one example, the context awareness graph includes relative size and relative position annotations with regard to one or more internal anatomical features in the scan image to enable a user to determine a current scan plane and further, to guide the user to a target scan plane.
