An ultrasound imaging method and system. The method comprises: for each of a plurality of steer angles, including a reference steer angle, transmitting acoustic energy to a target region at the particular steer angle, receiving acoustic reflections, and converting the acoustic reflections to an image, with the image being associated with the particular steer angle; computing motion information based on the image associated with the reference steer angle; and generating a compounded ultrasound image based on the image associated with each of the plurality of steer angles and based on the motion information.
