Abstract
The present invention provides an ultrasound_medical imaging system with integrated devices and functionalities for use in wide range of medical procedures that require vascular and arterial access. The present invention discloses a method for detection, recognition and classification of blood vessels. Said method further calculates the optimal insertion parameters of catheter to the blood vessels. The present invention also exempts the user from handling several procedures simultaneously such as positioning the probe, observing the image or data on the systems screen and locating an accurate location on the surface and thus allowing the user to practice a more accurate procedure.
