Abstract
We present a software tool designed to generate an M-mode image post hoc from any B-mode ultrasound clip, along any possible axis. M.mode.ify works by breaking down an ultrasound clip into individual frames. It then rotates and crops these frames by using a user-selected M-mode line. The post hoc M-mode image is created by splicing these frames together. Users can measure time and distance after proper calibration through the M.mode.ify interface. This tool opens up new possibilities for clinical application, quality assurance, and research. It is available free for public use at http://www.ultrasoundoftheweek.com/M.mode.ify/.Entities:
