Ultrasonic Diagnostic Apparatus

摘要

An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus (ultrasonic elastograph) for measuring strain or elastic modulus of a tissue or an organ of a living body, creating a strain image or an elastic modulus image by assigning a hue to the measurement data corresponding to the measured value, combining these images with a black and white tomogram, displaying the synthetic image on a color monitor, and displaying the hue assigned to the measurement data with a color bar. Information on comparison between a measured value corresponding to the hue of the color bar displayed on the color monitor and the reference value of the measured value is displayed at a position adjacent to the color bar on the screen of the color monitor.
