Embodiment 1

[0030] Such as figure 1 As shown, a remote-controlled ultrasonic probe scanning system in this embodiment includes: a patient-end device and a doctor-end device. The patient-end device includes: patient-end computer 1, depth camera 2, three-dimensional mobile platform 3, mechanical arm 4, ultrasonic probe 5, scanned tissue 6; the doctor-end device includes a virtual probe 7, a three-dimensional positioning device 8, Position sensor 9 and doctor end computer 10. The depth camera 2 can accurately obtain the distance between each point on the surface of the scanned tissue 6 and its camera, form a depth image, and connect to the patient computer 1 through a communication interface. The three-dimensional mobile platform 3 has a stepping motor, and the stepping motor has a motion axis, and the motion axis is fixed to a mechanical arm 4, and the mechanical arm is fixed to an ultrasonic probe 5, and the ultrasonic probe 5 is connected to the patient computer 1 to receive An ultrasou...

Embodiment 2

[0042] In this embodiment, the ultrasonic probe scanning system of remote control is the same as Embodiment 1, as image 3 As shown, the method for the remote-controlled ultrasonic probe scanning system of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0043] Step 1: Use the depth camera on the patient side to obtain the three-dimensional surface contour map of the scanned tissue, and transmit it to the doctor's computer through the network;

[0044] Step 2: The doctor end establishes the coordinate system T1 according to the received tissue 3D image map, uses the virtual probe to define the scanning trajectory on the image map, and saves the position of the virtual probe in real time through the doctor end computer, and transmits it to the patient end through the network in the computer;

[0045] Step 3: According to the received scanning trajectory, the patient side controls the three-dimensional mobile platform to drive the probe to translate or rotate with the help of th...

Abstract

The invention discloses an ultrasonic probe scanning system and method for remote control. The system comprises a patient end device and a doctor end device, wherein the patient end device comprises a patient end computer, a depth camera, a 3D moving platform, a mechanical arm and an ultrasonic probe, the patient end computer is connected with the depth camera, the mechanical arm is arranged on the 3D moving platform, and the ultrasonic probe is arranged at the front end of the mechanical arm; the doctor end device comprises a virtual probe, a 3D positioning device, a position sensor and a doctor end computer, and the position sensor is arranged on the virtual probe; a doctor end is connected with a patient end through a network. The ultrasonic probe scanning system is applied to remote control for the first time, the defect that in a traditional medical diagnosis process, a patient cannot see a doctor in time because the doctor and the patient are located at two different places is overcome, and therefore the system and method have great medical application value and prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical ultrasonic scanning, in particular to a remote-controlled ultrasonic probe scanning system and a method thereof. Background technique [0002] Ultrasound imaging is playing an increasingly important role in medical imaging technology due to its advantages of no ionizing radiation, low cost, and convenient use. At this stage, the application of ultrasonic probes to scan and image human tissue mainly stays at the local end, that is, doctors and patients must be in the same place. Due to differences in regional economic development, the distribution of medical resources is extremely uneven. Ultrasound diagnosis brings great inconvenience. In addition, at the local end, most ultrasound probes are scanned by hand, which is relatively random, which will also affect the imaging quality and subsequent diagnostic analysis. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to ove...
