Abstract

The invention provides an ultrasonic simulation method and system based on a medical tomographic image, and belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic imaging. The method comprises the following steps: calculating acoustic impedance coefficient of each voxel of the tomographic image; performing reflection modeling on the sectional image in combination with the acoustic impedance coefficient to obtain an initial reflectivity graph; processing the initial reflectivity graph by using a reflectivity generation network to obtain a complete reflectivity graph; and inputting the complete reflectivity image and the real ultrasonic image into an ultrasonic deep learning network at the same time to carry out realistic learning so as to obtain an ultrasonic virtual image. According to the method, the geometric shape of the image can be well kept, and the noise distribution and the light and shade effect of real ultrasound can be learned; the defect that the GAN cannot well maintain the geometrical shape is overcome, and texture information and other realistic information of the generated image can be maintained; and the method can be closer to the sense of reality of real ultrasound, and can better maintain the geometric shape of the human tissue corresponding to the generated simulated ultrasound.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic imaging, in particular to an ultrasonic simulation method and system based on medical tomographic images. Background technique [0002] At present, the existing methods of ultrasound imaging simulation are the technology of using three-dimensional medical image data to simulate the process of ultrasound imaging to obtain ultrasound virtual images. It is widely used in ultrasound-guided surgery, image processing, ultrasound education and training, etc. Because ultrasound can achieve real-time imaging and the equipment is easy to use, doctors use ultrasound images to judge the surgical location during surgery. [0003] However, due to the weak position of the ultrasound image information and the low imaging quality, there will be errors. Therefore, using ultrasound simulation technology, the patient can be CT scanned in advance and the volume data of the patient can be stored. During the operat...
