A system and method for providing enhanced visualization of ultrasound probe positioning feedback is provided. The method includes displaying a mask defining a target position and orientation of an ultrasound probe that corresponds to a pre-defined view of anatomical structure. The mask includes a primary target area, lateral target area(s) positioned laterally from the primary target area, and elevational target area(s) positioned in an elevational direction from the primary target area. The method includes displaying a reticle having a reticle position and orientation corresponding to a position and orientation of the probe. The reticle position and orientation is dynamically updated with respect to the mask based on the probe position data and in response to movement of the probe. The reticle includes a primary reticle element, lateral reticle element(s) positioned laterally from the primary reticle element, and elevational reticle element(s) positioned in an elevational direction from the primary reticle element.
