ULTRASONIC DIAGNOSIS DEVICE, ULTRASONIC IMAGE ANALYSIS DEVICE, AND ULTRASONIC IMAGE ANALYSIS METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately display parameter image data at a desired diastolic heartbeat time phase. SOLUTION: A motion parameter measuring unit 9 two-dimensionally measures a motion parameter of a myocardial tissue by a tracking process on time-series ultrasonic image data acquired by transmission and reception of ultrasonic waves to and from a sample. On the other hand, a time phase setting unit 8 adds a diastolic heartbeat time phase, which is set on the basis of a systole end specified by a time phase where a cardiac cavity area of the ultrasonic image data is the smallest and a diastole end specified by an R wave in an electrocardiographic waveform of the sample, relative to the systole end to time-series parameter image data generated by a parameter image data generating unit 10 on the basis of the motion parameter. An image data extracting unit 11 extracts parameter image data to which the diastolic heartbeat time phase closest to a desired diastolic heartbeat time phase set by an input unit 13 is added and displays the extracted parameter image data on a display unit 12.
