Problems solved by technology

[0006] According to the prior art as already explained above, data comparison using the measurement graph can be performed for numerical data, however, the data comparison is neither natural nor intuitive
On the other hand, when the visual comparison of the anatomical morphology set by the measurement patterns is performed for each image by merging multiple ultrasound images of the imaging locations in a kinetic etiological order, the morphological comparison between the measurement patterns may become too much. ambiguous so that reliable morphological comparisons cannot be obtained

Abstract

The present invention provides an ultrasound imaging device which allows to carry out a morphological comparison of measurement patterns set within a plurality of ultrasound images in a reliable and easier manner. The measurement pattern storage device (250) stores the circle indicating the size of the inner wall of the left ventricle, and is designated in the B-mode image of the diastolic period of the left ventricle, and the measurement pattern reproduction device (240) reproduces the circle indicating the systole period of the left ventricle in the B-mode image, so that A morphological comparison of the left ventricular inner wall in systole and diastole can be done in an easier and very reliable manner with the Numerical data are obtained together in order to provide an appropriate determination of the numerical data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an ultrasound imaging apparatus that displays an ultrasound image of a subject, and displays a measurement pattern in the displayed ultrasound image based on measurement pattern information on the position and shape of the input measurement pattern, so as to implement the measurement of the ultrasound image Image measurement. Background technique [0002] Recently, in ultrasonic imaging apparatuses, ultrasonic images as generally represented by "B" type images have fine grains. Furthermore, not only morphological examinations can be performed in real time, but also measurements and examinations of organ anatomy can be performed on the basis of quantitative information derived therefrom. [0003] In quantitative inspection, a measurement pattern including such as a trajectory is loaded into an ultrasound image, and the pattern is repositioned to a target position by using a pointing device such as a trackball for image ...
