METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING TEMPERATURE OF TREATMENT SITE USING ULTRASOUND, SYSTEM FOR TREATMENT AND DIAGNOSIS USING ULTRASOUND

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for monitoring the temperature of a treatment part by using an ultrasonic wave, a device thereof, and a system for diagnosis and treatment with the ultrasonic wave are provided to efficiently perform ultrasonic wave treatment by accurately monitoring the temperature of surroundings and a tumor during the treatment of the tumor. CONSTITUTION: An obtaining unit(410) obtains an echo signal of an ultrasonic wave for treatment emitted to a treatment part. A candidate temperature image generating unit(4210) generates candidate temperature images corresponding to each temperature detecting method from the obtained echo signal by using different temperature detecting methods. A merging unit(430) merges the generated candidate temperature images by applying the accuracy of each temperature detecting method to the generated candidate temperature images. A final temperature image generating unit(4230) generates a final temperature image based on the merged result.
