The method of one embodiment for ultrasound image computation of cardiac events comprises obtaining a first set of ultrasound data and a first electrocardiogram signal, obtaining a second set of ultrasound data and a second electrocardiogram signal, processing the first and second sets of ultrasound data to obtain first and second processed ultrasound signal events, relating the first and second processed ultrasound signal events to the first and second electrocardiogram signals in time, and determining a relative timing between the first and second processed ultrasound signal events. The system of one embodiment for ultrasound image computation of cardiac events comprises an ultrasound device, an electrocardiogram device, and a processor comprising a first module to receive and process ultrasound data, a second module to receive electrocardiogram signals, a third module to relate ultrasound signal events to electrocardiogram signals, and a fourth module to determine a relative timing between ultrasound signal events.
