摘要：
An ultrasound imaging apparatus (10) for segmenting an anatomical object in a field of view (29) of an ultrasound acquisition unit (14) is disclosed. The ultrasound imaging apparatus comprises a data interface (32) configured to receive a two-dimensional ultrasound data (30) of the object in the field of view in an image plane from the ultrasound acquisition unit and to receive a three-dimensional segmentation model (46) as a three-dimensional representation of the object from a segmentation unit (36). An image processor (34) is configured to determine a two-dimensional segmentation model (50) on the basis of the three-dimensional segmentation model and a segmentation plane (48), wherein the segmentation plane and an image plane of the two-dimensional ultrasound data correspond to each other. The image processor is configured to adapt a contour of the two-dimensional segmentation model to the two-dimensional ultrasound data on the basis of pattern detection and where the image processor is configured to provide annotated two-dimensional image data (42) on the basis of the two-dimensional ultrasound data and the adapted segmentation model aligned to the two-dimensional ultrasound data.
