Existing automated software for vascular ultrasound data extraction lacks free, open-source options suitable for professionals without coding experience. These programs typically include signal-cleaning algorithms, resulting in processed output without access to raw data. To address these needs, we developed TG Vascutrack, an open-source and user-friendly software tailored for non-coder professionals. It features a graphical interface, multiple functionalities, and provides access to raw data. Comparative analysis against validated software and manual extraction revealed minimal biases and standard deviations in diameter and velocity measurements. TG Vascutrack offers a free, promising solution for non-coders needing automated vascular ultrasound data extraction.
