    If you're talking about interfacing with external hardware then that hardware will pretty much always come with accompanying software, so the first thing you should do is review the documentation for that software.

    Most ultrasound equipment can save images on a USB-stick as a *.jpg.
    So not sure what you mean with "review image from ultrasound on time"

    You can't connect to the untrasound hardware directly unless you know the low-level protocol it uses. The manufacturer provides software to abstract away those low-level hardware calls. Your software talks to the manufacturers software and that talks to the hardware.

    i think the ultrasound connect to computer via a parallel port, so i think i can get animation from ultrasound via the port

    You can get bytes from the port. If you don't know what those bytes mean then they're useless to you. That's what the manufacturer's software is for. It does know what the bytes mean so it can interpret them and pass the data on to you in a meaningful form. If you still don't get it then you probably never will so I won't be explaining any further regardless.

    Re: show image from ultrasound

    Most ultrasound equipment has a video out. Its a BNC connector giving NTSC/PAL video signal. So with any monitor or a PC with video-in can be hooked up.
    May I ask what "your software" is?
    BTW the parallel port is used for printing the image.
    If the machine has a network connector its only used for storing the images on a PACS system. No video there.
