System and method for automatically detecting and controlling direction of probe of breast ultrasonic equipment

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic detection, and particularly relates to an automatic detection control system and method for the probe orientation of breast ultrasonic equipment. The system comprises an orientation detection module; an orientation calibration module; an orientation judgment module; and a decision module. The method comprises the following steps: S1, calibrating the azimuth angle of a probe according to the position of a detection bed, and storing the calibrated azimuth angle of the probe; s2, a user selects the direction of a probe before scanning, a scanning instruction is sent out, and scanning preparation is started; s3, after the decision-making module receives the scanning instruction, the current azimuth angle of the probe is obtained, and the current orientation of the probe is judged through calculation according to the calibrated azimuth angle of the probe; and S4, comparing the calculated and judged current direction of the probe with the direction of the probe selected by the user, and determining the starting of scanning according to the result. The method has the advantage that misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis can be effectively avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic detection, and in particular relates to a system and a method for automatically detecting and controlling the position of a breast ultrasonic equipment probe. Background technique [0002] Due to its non-invasive, rapid and non-radioactive characteristics, breast ultrasonography plays an increasingly important role in female breast health examination. Based on the characteristics of breast ultrasound examination, some manufacturers have launched automatic breast ultrasound diagnosis system. When using the automatic breast ultrasound diagnostic system, the patient is lying on the detection bed, the doctor needs to select the scanning position and the direction of the probe (left and right), stand on the left or right side of the patient according to the direction of the probe, and fix the probe cover on the patient Start the scan at the corresponding body position, and complete a scan operation...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the existing technology that the existing probe moves from bottom to top, which is extremely dependent on the doctor’s proficiency and care. If the doctor’s actual hand-held probe direction is inconsistent with the system’s selected probe direction, data will be arranged. If a mistake is made, the wrong image will be reconstructed at the back end, leading to the problem of misdiagnosis. A breast ultrasound equipment probe position automatic detection control system and method that can effectively avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis are provided.
