发明名称 Apparatus for ultrasound imaging of a biopsy needle
摘要 A method and apparatus for enabling a biopsy needle to be observed in a three-dimensional ultrasound diagnostic system using an interventional ultrasound system. The apparatus comprises an ultrasound transducer, a three-dimensional image-forming section, a section for extracting a target object, a location-calculating section, a display section, and a controller. The method comprises the steps of acquiring a two-dimensional ultrasound image of a subject; generating a three-dimensional volume image based on the two-dimensional ultrasound image; segmenting a target image, which corresponds to a target object within the subject, from the three-dimensional volume image; displaying a guide line of the biopsy guide on the segmented target image; extracting the segmented target image; acquiring information on a location of the biopsy needle by reference to the segmented target image; calculating an error based on the information; and displaying a guiding status of the biopsy needle based on the calculated error. <IMAGE>
