An ultrasound device performs a two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound scan to acquire a plurality of 2D images based on 2D ultrasound scan parameters. The ultrasound system stops the 2D ultrasound scan in response to an instruction received by a processor of the ultrasound system. The ultrasound device performs a thin slice volume ultrasound scan in response to the instruction to acquire a thin slice volume. The thin slice volume includes a last acquired 2D image of the 2D ultrasound scan and one or more 2D images adjacent to the last acquired 2D image. The ultrasound system identifies at least one representative plane from the thin slice volume. The ultrasound system displays the identified at least one representative plane at a display system.
