Abstract

The present application relates to the field of ultrasound scanning, and discloses a three-dimensional breast ultrasound scanning method and an ultrasound scanning system, being able to accurately andautomatically determine the position of the nipple with respect to the lateral ultrasound image. In the method, putting a probe at a central position of the breast for ultrasonic scanning to obtain afirst ultrasonic image while a camera captures a first video image including a marker ring, wherein the first ultrasonic image covers a nipple position; determining a nipple position according to thefirst ultrasound image; placing a probe at a side position of the breast for ultrasonic scanning to obtain a second ultrasonic image, and simultaneously a camera captures a second video image including a marker ring; and performing image analysis on the first and second video images to determine a relative position of the second ultrasound image with respect to the nipple position based on the position of the marker ring in the first and second video images.

Description

Technical field [0001] This application relates to the field of ultrasound scanning, in particular to breast ultrasound scanning technology. Background technique [0002] At present, when the automatic breast ultrasound scanning system is used to scan the breast, the three-dimensional image of an automatic scan can cover a part of the breast. In diagnosis or screening, in order to cover the entire breast, the operator usually needs to place the ultrasound probes in three positions of the breast to obtain three three-dimensional images to cover the entire breast area. These three positions are usually AP (central breast), MED (inner breast), LAT (outer breast), such as figure 1 Shown are the three positions of the right breast. The obtained three-dimensional image will also be marked as the corresponding location to facilitate the doctor to read the film. And this marking behavior is usually manually input by the operator in the scanning workstation. In the acquired image, due ...
