Handheld auxiliary scanning device

Abstract

The invention discloses a handheld auxiliary scanning device. The handheld auxiliary scanning device comprises an H-shaped hollow shell, a scanning transmission mechanism fixed to the hollow shell, and an ultrasonic probe support in transmission connection with the scanning transmission mechanism. A handheld handle is formed by the two lower ends of the H-shaped hollow shell, an ultrasonic probe is fixed to the ultrasonic probe support, and the scanning transmission mechanism drives the ultrasonic probe support to move in a linear mode so as to enable the ultrasonic probe to continuously and stably collect two-dimensional carotid artery section images at different positions. When used in cooperation with the ultrasonic probe, the handheld auxiliary scanning device can assist the ultrasonic probe to continuously, accurately and stably collect the two-dimensional ultrasonic images.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image acquisition, in particular to a hand-held scanning auxiliary device. Background technique [0002] Medical ultrasound imaging technology is today's mainstream method for easy and non-invasive assessment of the detailed internal structure of tissues and organs for assessment, diagnosis, designation of treatment options, and determination of curative effect. However, conventional 2D ultrasound image scanning has several drawbacks: [0003] 1. Conventional ultrasound images are two-dimensional, and the diagnostician must mentally transform multiple two-dimensional images to form a complex three-dimensional structure, which leads to variability and sometimes incorrect diagnoses; [0004] 2. It is very difficult to localize the 2D ultrasound image plane of the organ and reconstruct it afterwards. This makes the approach error-prone and limited in its ability to quantify disease progression and decline,...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1. Conventional ultrasound images are two-dimensional, and the diagnostician must mentally transform multiple two-dimensional images to form a complex three-dimensional structure, which leads to variability and sometimes incorrect diagnoses;

[0004] 2. It is very difficult to localize the 2D ultrasound image plane of the organ and reconstruct it afterwards

This makes the approach error-prone and limited in its ability to quantify disease progression and decline, especially when tracking small changes;

[0005] 3. The patient's body structure often limits the angle of the image, resulting in the inability to observe the most ideal image plane for disease assessment;

Whereas 2D ultrasound is variable and sometimes inaccurate, 3D ultrasound ensures accurate and less variable estimation of anatomy
