1. An ultrasound imaging system with image dynamic range control comprising:
a transducer array probe;
a beamformer coupled to the probe;
an image processor coupled to the beamformer and configured to produce ultrasound images;
a dynamic range processor, coupled to the image processor, and adapted produce an approximation image in response to an input image, to apply dynamic range compression to the approximation image, and to add image detail to the dynamic range compressed approximation image; and
a display, coupled to the dynamic range processor, and adapted to display a dynamic range compressed approximation image with added image detail.
