ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING THEREIN COMPUTER-READABLE PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLING ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS

摘要

An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes: a hardware processor that search for a blood vessel position of a subject in a tomographic image and automatically setting a region corresponding to the blood vessel position detected in the tomographic image as a measurement region for generating a Doppler image. In a case where a measurement region has been already set or in a case where a specified position specified by a user exists when the hardware processor automatically sets the measurement region, the hardware processor executes processing of searching for the blood vessel position such that the measurement region is automatically set near the measurement region that has been already set or the specified position.
