摘要

The present invention relates to ultrasound medical imaging for providing information about a region of interest of an object. In particular, the invention relates to an ultrasound medical imaging system and a method for providing information about a region of interest of an object. In order to improve the quantification information provided to the user, a method for providing information about a region of interest of an object is provided, which method comprises the following steps: In a first acquisition step 112, at least a first 114 and a second ultrasound image plane 116 of an object 12 are acquired. Further, a region of interest in the at least first and second image planes of the object is determined 118. Then, first quantification 122 data for the region of interest from the first image plane and second quantification data 124 for the region of interest from the second image plane are determined 120. Next, a composite quantification measurement 128 is generated 126 by combining the determined first quantification data of the first image plane and the determined second quantification data of the second image plane. Further, the composite quantification measurement is provided 130 to the user.
