Abstract
A facility for assessing an ultrasound image captured from a patient with a particular depth setting is described. The facility subjects the received ultrasound image to at least one neural network to produce, for each neural network, an inference. On the basis of the produced inferences, the facility determines whether the depth setting at which the ultrasound image was captured was optimal.
