Reliable quality control (QC) of ultrasound images is essential for both real-time acquisition guidance and retrospective clinical audit, yet existing approaches rely heavily on per-plane annotations, or employ pseudo-labeling prone to systematic bias under spatial deformations inherent in clinical acquisition. We present STRIQ, a registration-driven framework that recasts annotation-free US plane quality control as a subspace-guided consistency measurement problem. Specifically, STRIQ introduces a Latent Registration Aligner (LRA) to establish hierarchical feature space correspondences between query images and variance-driven anchors, which are autonomously distilled from unlabeled data via a variance spectrum criterion to serve as structurally stable prototypes. To further disambiguate anatomical planes and mitigate negative knowledge transfer, we propose an Orthogonal Knowledge Subspace (OKS) module. The OKS decomposes plane-specific representations into mutually orthogonal subspaces, enabling fine-grained expert collaboration while preventing inter-plane interference, ensuring that the quality metric is grounded in principled subspace proximity. Extensive experiments on the in-house US4QA and public CAMUS datasets demonstrate that STRIQ achieves state-of-the-art correlation with clinical quality scores, establishing a new paradigm for annotation-free, real-time reliable ultrasound quality control.
