Ultrasound is a vital imaging modality utilized for a variety of diagnostic and interventional procedures. However, an expert sonographer is required to make accurate maneuvers of the probe over the human body while making sense of the ultrasound images for diagnostic purposes. This procedure requires a substantial amount of training and up to a few years of experience. In this paper, we propose a...
