Sono Gallery: Digital Video Atlas of Sonographic Findings

Sono Gallery provides a curated database of anonymized ultrasound video clips labeled with primary diagnoses and organized by organ systems to support diagnostic interpretation of typical, atypical, and rare sonographic findings.


Key Features:

  • Video Database: Contains over 1,000 anonymized ultrasound video clips edited to 10–25 seconds for focused diagnostic review.
  • Diagnostic Classification: Assigns primary diagnoses and categorizes clips by organ system and keywords to enable structured retrieval of sonographic findings.
  • Search Functionality: Supports keyword- and diagnosis-based queries for rapid identification of relevant ultrasound sequences.

Scientific Applications:

  • Clinical Decision Support: Provides reference cases of typical, non-typical, and rare ultrasound findings to assist differential diagnosis.
  • Medical Education: Facilitates training in ultrasound interpretation through exposure to curated real-world clinical cases.

Methodology:

All video clips are anonymized to ensure patient privacy. Each clip undergoes critical evaluation, assignment of a primary diagnosis, and categorization by organ system and keywords to ensure accurate representation of clinical sonographic findings.
