The present invention relates to image processing for enhancing ultrasound images. In order to provide image data showing the current situation, for example in a region of interest of a patient, an image processing device (10) for enhancing ultrasound images is provided that comprises an image data input unit (12), a central processing unit (14), and a display unit (16). The image data input unit is configured to provide an ultrasound image of a region of interest of an object, and to provide an X-ray image of the region of interest of the object. The central processing unit is configured to select a predetermined image area in the X-ray image, to register the ultrasound image and the X-ray image, to detect the predetermined area in the ultrasound image based on the registered selected predetermined image area, and to highlight at least a part of the detected area in the ultrasound image to generate a boosted ultrasound image. The display unit is configured to provide the boosted ultrasound image as guiding information on a display area (18).
