First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for storing medical imaging information, the method comprising:
- storing raw medical data of a scanned object in a reference data file;
storing a set of image generating parameters into a parameter-constrained file that is separate from the reference data file;
linking the set of image generating parameters stored in the parameter-constrained file to the reference data file; and
generating an image by applying the set of image generating parameters to the reference data file.

Abstract
A system and method for storing ultrasound information are provided. The method includes storing raw medical data of a scanned object in a reference data file, storing a set of image generating parameters into a parameter-constrained file that is separate from the reference data file, linking the set of image generating parameters stored in the parameter-constrained file to the reference data file, and generating an image by applying the set of image generating parameters to the reference data file.
