Abstract

Disclosed is an automatic breast ultrasound scanning method. The method is characterized in that a used automatic breast ultrasound scanning device comprises an ultrasonic coupling device, a probe seat, an ultrasonic probe and a probe moving device; the ultrasonic coupling device comprises a supporting frame, an upper elastic membrane and a lower elastic membrane, the edges of the upper elastic membrane and the lower elastic membrane are both connected with the supporting frame, and an airtight cavity is formed between the upper elastic membrane and the lower elastic membrane and is filled with coupling liquid; when scanning is performed, an examined person lies on an examination couch on the back, then the automatic breast ultrasound scanning device is put on the breast of the examined person, and the lower elastic membrane of the ultrasonic coupling device is tightly pressed on the breast; then the probe moving device drives the probe seat and the ultrasonic probe to move together according to a predetermined route, and the ultrasonic probe clings to the upper surface of the upper elastic membrane and scans the breast. The breast can be scanned automatically; the examined person adopts a supine posture in the process of examination, thereby feeling comfortable; operation is stable, scanning speed is high, and examination accuracy is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for detecting human tissue by ultrasonic waves, in particular to an automatic ultrasonic scanning method for mammary glands. Background technique [0002] Existing breast ultrasound examinations are generally manual scans, which have high requirements on the doctor's scanning techniques during the breast examination process, and the scanning speed is slow, which affects the examination efficiency. [0003] The emergence of breast ultrasound automatic scanning device helps to improve the scanning speed and inspection efficiency. An existing breast ultrasound automatic scanning device includes a mammary gland examination bed, a probe and a probe moving device for the subject to be examined in a prone position; two inspection holes are arranged in the chest area of ​​the breast examination bed; the probe is fixedly installed The probe moving device is connected with the ultrasonic diagnostic instrument; a water tank is a...
