Abstract
Systems and methods to detect electromagnetic (EM) emissions on ultrasound systems are described. In some embodiments, an ultrasound system includes an ultrasound scanner that is configured to generate ultrasound data based on reflections of ultrasound signals transmitted by the ultrasound scanner. An ultrasound machine is coupled to the ultrasound scanner and configured to generate an ultrasound image based on the ultrasound data. A circuit is coupled to the ultrasound machine and configured to make a determination whether the ultrasound image is corrupted by a noise process.
