    Abstract

    The lack of a standard format for storing ultrasound research data is hindering our ability to share and compare research results. This is slowing down the progress in our field, making it difficult to assess the relevance of new techniques. In October 2017 the Ultrasound File Format (UFF) initiative was formed with the aim of defining such a standard, with the support of eleven research groups. Here we present some of the components of the first draft of the UFF format.
