ULTRASOUND OBSERVATION DEVICE, ULTRASOUND OBSERVATION SYSTEM, METHOD FOR OPERATION OF ULTRASOUND OBSERVATION DEVICE, AND PROGRAM FOR OPERATION OF ULTRASOUND OBSERVATION DEVICE,

摘要

Provided is an ultrasound observation device, which transmits ultrasound to a subject, receives the ultrasound which is reflected within the subject, and generates ultrasound images, said device comprising: a TIC analysis unit which reads out a motion video which is formed from the ultrasound images which are stored in a storage unit and which are arrayed in time series, and carries out a TIC analysis on the basis of a change over time in signal intensity of the ultrasound which is reflected by a contrast medium which has been administered to the subject; an extraction unit which extracts information of an operation which is performed by a user, said information being stored in the storage unit together with the ultrasound images; and a display control unit which causes a display device to display that the extraction unit has extracted the operation which is performed by the user. Thus is provided an ultrasound observation device which is capable of issuing a notification of whether, during the recording of a motion video of a subject for analysis, an operation which is performed by a user and which affects the result of the analysis has been carried out.
