Embodiment Construction

[0032] Hereinafter, an example of an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, an image processing apparatus, and an analysis method according to an embodiment will be described.

[0033] First, the configuration of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus 10 related to the first embodiment will be described. figure 1 It is a block diagram showing the configuration of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment. Such as figure 1 As illustrated, the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment includes an apparatus main body 11 , an ultrasonic probe 12 , an input device 13 , and a monitor 14 .

[0034] The ultrasonic probe 12 has a plurality of piezoelectric vibrators. These piezoelectric vibrators generate ultrasonic waves based on drive signals supplied from an ultrasonic transmission unit 21 included in the apparatus main body 11 described later, and receive reflected waves from the subject P and convert them into electrical signals. ...

Abstract

The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to the present embodiments includes an ultrasound transmitting and receiving unit, a tomographic image generating unit, an analyzing unit, and an analysis result display controller. The ultrasound transmitting and receiving unit is configured to transmit ultrasonic beams in multiple directions and is configured to receive echo signals of the multiple directions. The tomographic image generating unit is configured to generate a tomographic image in accordance with each of the directions of the ultrasonic beams. The analyzing unit is configured to compare echo signals of corresponding spatial positions in the tomographic images generated by the tomographic image generating unit with respect to each of the directions of the ultrasonic beams, and is configured to perform an analysis based on the comparison. The analysis result display controller is configured to display the analysis result obtained by the analyzing unit onto the displaying unit.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on and claims priority from prior Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-151987 filed on July 2, 2010 and prior Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-128059 filed on June 8, 2011, the Japanese The entire content of the patent application is incorporated in this application by reference. technical field [0003] Embodiments relate to an ultrasonic diagnostic device, an image processing device, and an analysis method. Background technique [0004] Conventionally, ultrasonic diagnostic apparatuses have been smaller in scale than other medical image diagnostic apparatuses such as X-ray diagnostic apparatuses, X-ray CT (Computed Tomography) apparatuses, and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) apparatuses. In addition, the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus can display in real time the movement of the examination object such as the beating of the heart or the movement of the fetus by simply operating an ult...
