<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a more accurate, reliable and highly stable ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus capable of estimating an elastic property. <P>SOLUTION: The elastic property value of a vascular wall is estimated based on the shape of the vascular wall, the quantity of distortion of the vascular wall computed from the distribution of the maximum displacement in the depth direction between the bloodstream-intima boundary and the adventitia-body tissue boundary, and the blood pressure value captured from a blood pressure acquisition part 113. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
