Ultrasound imaging apparatus and method of controlling the same

摘要

Disclosed herein are an ultrasound imaging apparatus and a method for controlling the same. An occluded region generated in a 2D image may be removed by performing frame interpolation on a surface region of an object by extracting the surface region of the object from 3D ultrasonic volume data and calculating a motion vector in the extracted surface region, and an amount of calculation may be reduced by calculating a motion vector of the surface region in 3D volume data. The ultrasound imaging apparatus includes a volume data generator configured to acquire volume data which relates to the object, a surface region extractor configured to extract the surface region of the object based on the acquired volume data, and a frame interpolator configured to perform frame interpolation on the extracted surface region of the object.
