Abstract

Systems and methods for a virtual sonography team are described. 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 and communicate the ultrasound data over a communication network to at least one display device and an archiver. An ultrasound machine is coupled to the ultrasound scanner and is configured to determine examination data for the ultrasound examination and communicate the examination data to the archiver over the communication network. The display device is configured to generate an ultrasound image based on the ultrasound data as part of an ultrasound examination and communicate the ultrasound image to the archiver for aggregation with the examination data into a patient record of the ultrasound examination.
