Problems solved by technology

However, the medical ultrasound equipment currently used in most hospitals does not have the function of telemedicine, and the commercial telemedicine system is expensive and cannot be afforded by the majority of small and medium-sized hospitals.
At the same time, commercial medical ultrasound imaging systems often do not open their interfaces to the outside world, so it is difficult to obtain ultrasound image data

Abstract

The invention discloses a wireless three-dimensional ultrasound imaging method and device. The device comprises a server terminal mounted on a medical ultrasonic diagnostic instrument and a client mounted in background. The method includes acquiring, in a manner of screen capturing, a plurality of continuous two-dimensional ultrasound images displayed on the medical ultrasonic diagnostic instrument, processing the captured two-dimensional ultrasound images, acquiring patient, diagnosis position, probe type and scanning depth information, and finally extracting an interested area to perform three-dimensional reconstruction. In actual application, corresponding position estimation of adjacent image frames can be performed through image information to perform three-dimensional reconstruction; position information of the two-dimensional ultrasound images can be acquired from a positioning device, and three-dimensional reconstruction can be performed according to the position information and images. According to the method, image data of the commercial medical ultrasound imaging system can be acquired from an interface closed to the outside in the manner of screen capturing, the medical ultrasound imaging system produced by one particular vendor can be avoided, and the method has the advantages of platform crossing and high portability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer-aided medical imaging, in particular to a wireless three-dimensional ultrasonic imaging method and device. Background technique [0002] Medical ultrasound diagnosis is a non-invasive and non-invasive diagnostic technique, which is quite effective for brain, liver and spleen, gallbladder, kidney, heart, thyroid, breast, body cavity effusion and obstetrics and gynecology examination. Among them, three-dimensional ultrasound imaging technology has been more and more widely used in ultrasound diagnosis due to its intuitive imaging and high diagnostic accuracy. [0003] At present, telemedicine is in the ascendant, and medical ultrasound imaging technology, as a widely used means of diagnosis and treatment, plays an important role in telemedicine. However, the medical ultrasound equipment currently used in most hospitals does not have the function of telemedicine, and the commercial telemedicine sys...
