Claim 12:
13. A method of live ultrasound imaging of biological tissue, the method comprising:
receiving, in real-time, by a processor of an ultrasound system, an ultrasound image from a live stream of ultrasound images of a subject, wherein ultrasound images in the live stream, including the ultrasound image, are generated in accordance with current settings of a plurality of imaging parameters of the ultrasound system;
receiving an identification of a type of the biological tissue in the ultrasound image;
receiving subject identification information, user identification information, or a combination thereof;
identifying the subject as a recurring subject based at least in part on the subject identification information;
based on the type of the biological tissue and the subject identification information, generating a predicted setting for the recurring subject for at least one of the plurality of imaging parameters; and
automatically adjusting the current setting of the at least one of the of the plurality of imaging parameters in accordance with the predicted setting for subsequent live imaging of the recurring subject,
wherein the generating the predicted setting is based on use of an artificial neural network model, and
wherein the artificial neural network model is a model trained using historical data extracted from system logs from multiple prior scans performed by a same user or of the recurring subject.
