1. A method for operating a transducer of a headset system that collects ultrasound data from a subject, the method comprising:
detecting at least one fiducial marker placed on the subject using image data, the image data comprising two images of the subject from different viewpoints; and
determining a scanning area of the subject bounded by the at least one fiducial marker; and
restricting the transducer from traveling beyond the scanning area while the transducer collects the ultrasound data.
