The custom designed video processing software for analysis of B-mode and Doppler-mode ultrasound video has been proposed in this work. The software allows adjusting user-defined thresholds and tolerance levels to enhance contour detection in noisy and artifacted ultrasound images. The developed software is able to evaluate 16 hemodynamic parameters (artery diameter, pulse rate and flow velocity related parameters) in each cardiac cycle. The measurements were performed intermittently recording artery diameter (B-mode) and flow velocity (Doppler-mode). Software has validated in femoral artery measurements. The hemodynamic parameters computed by software were consistent with those obtained by experienced sonographer.
