IMAGING PROCESSING UNIT, ULTRASONIC IMAGING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

Disclosed are an image processing unit, an ultrasonic imaging device, and an image processing method, which can rapidly process an image based on an input signal. The image processing unit includes a signal input unit configured to receive an input signal on a channel, a weighting coefficient database configured to store a weighting coefficient wherein the weighting coefficient is part of a weighting coefficient subgroup, and a processor configured to select the weighting coefficient subgroup from the weighting coefficient database, and convert the input signal by selecting and using the weighting coefficient from the weighting coefficient subgroup.
