Software product for three-dimensional cardiac imaging using ultrasound contour reconstruction

This is a computer software product designed to create a three-dimensional model of an internal body part. It works by taking multiple ultrasound images from different angles, then a user manually outlines specific features in some of these images. The software combines these outlines with the ultrasound sensor's exact position and orientation to build the 3D model. The most specific version of this invention focuses on modeling the heart using an ultrasound sensor on a catheter inserted into a heart chamber.

Why it matters: Filed before modern AI. Deep learning models can now automate contour marking and significantly enhance 3D reconstruction accuracy and speed, overcoming the manual input bottleneck described.
