In a method, system and computer program product for retrospective imageclip saving for ultrasound imagery, the method includes first repeatedlyacquiringdifferent ultrasound image clips of a single view of a target feature throughan ultrasoundimaging probe of an ultrasound imaging system. Thereafter, each of theacquireddifferent ultrasound image clips may be stored in a buffer of the ultrasoundimagingsystem and a value assigned to each of the image clips according to a measuredcharacteristic. A save-best-clip mode of the ultrasound imaging system is thenactivatedand, in response to the activation, each of the acquired different ultrasoundimage clipsare compared in the buffer based upon respective measured characteristics, atleast one ofthe clips demonstrating an optimal value for the measured characteristic isidentified andthe identified clip or clips saved in memory of the ultrasound imaging systemincorrespondence with the single view.
