3-dimensional ultrasound diagnostic equipment

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a three-dimensional ultrasonograph which can perform three-dimensional image analysis retrospectively. PSOLUTION: A volume data generation unit 4 generates three-dimensional collection image data (volume data) based on collection data collected by a three-dimensional ultrasonic probe 1. A writing/reading control part 6 writes the volume data in time series in order into a four-dimensional volume memory 5 and controls the written volume data. When reproduction is designated, the writing/reading control part 6 reads the designated volume data from the four-dimensional memory 5 and controls the designated volume data, and an image processing unit 7 reconstitutes the three-dimensional display image and displays it on a display part 8 on the basis of the volume data. Thereby various three-dimensional image analysis can be easily performed retrospectively. PCOPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
