Summary:There is provided a method of processing 2D ultrasound images for computing clinical parameter(s) of a right ventricle (RV), comprising: selecting one 2D ultrasound image of 2D ultrasound images depicting the RV, interpolating an inner contour of an endocardial border of the RV for the selected 2D image, tracking the interpolated inner contour obtained for the one 2D ultrasound image over the 2D images over cardiac cycle(s), computing a RV area of the RV for each respective 2D image according to the tracked interpolated inner contour, identifying a first 2D image depicting an end-diastole (ED) state according to a maximal value of the RV area for the 2D images, and a second 2D US image depicting an end-systole (ES) state according to minimal value of the RV area for the 2D images, and computing clinical parameter(s) of the RV according to the identified first and second 2D images.
