Patent attributes
System parameters for contrast agent medical imaging are conveniently set. A simplified contrast agent configuration is provided. One contrast agent imaging mode or configuration is dynamically determined and optimized based on the user's selected transmit level and/or a real-time measurement of the contrast agent signals. A simplified user interface provides one contrast agent imaging mode without a need to switch between multiple modes or contrast agent detection techniques and associated contrast agent imaging parameters. The contrast agent detection technique and imaging parameters are adjusted or selected based on changes in the transmit levels for contrast agent imaging. Appropriate contrast agent detection techniques and imaging parameters are selected for each given transmit level without the user having to switch the mode or configuration of the system during an imaging session.
