ULTRASONOGRAPHIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GENERATING ULTRASONOGRAM

摘要

A series of data processes can be executed in separate processers without requiring processing cycle synchronization or processing timing adjustment between the respective processers. A data conversion unit (20) generates ultrasonic image data by using RF data based on a reflected echo signal received from an examinee.  The data conversion unit (20) includes a plurality of processors (20a to 20h) for executing a series of data processes associated with the ultrasonic measurement mode and a buffer memory (20m) for storing the processing result.  Each of the processors (20a to 20h) executes a process assigned to the local processor in accordance with a writing request of the local processor and writes the processing result in the buffer memory (20m).  The processing result written into the buffer memory (20m) is read out in accordance with a read request from other processor.
