Abstract
To provide a technique capable of guiding a delivery path of a medical device in intervention under an echo guide.SOLUTION: A medical device comprises: an ultrasonic information acquisition unit which acquires ultrasonic information in a living body obtained from an ultrasonic probe that has an ultrasonic sensor and emits an ultrasonic wave into the living body; an echo image generation unit which generates an ultrasonic echo image expressing a vertical cross section of a blood vessel from the ultrasonic information; a guide image generation unit which generates a guide image including a guide line extending along a center line of the blood vessel expressed in the ultrasonic echo image from the ultrasonic information; and a display control unit which generates and displays a composite image in which the ultrasonic echo image is superimposed on the guide image.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
