ULTRASONOGRAPHIC DEVICE, ULTRASONOGRAPHIC PROGRAM, AND ULTRASONOGRAPHIC METHOD

摘要

An ultrasonographic device includes: a probe (102) for transmitting/receiving an ultrasonic wave to/from an examinee; transmission means (120) for supplying a drive signal for wave transmission to the probe (102); reception means (122) for processing a reception signal outputted from the probe (102); a displacement calculation unit (105) for measuring displacement of a biological tissue according to the output signal from an ultrasonic wave transmission/reception unit (103); a color DSC (108) constituting an elastic image based on the displacement of the biological tissue; and an image display device (112) for displaying the elastic image. The ultrasonographic device further includes displacement search direction setting means (113B) for setting the search direction of the displacement in accordance with the direction of displacement of the biological tissue. The color DSC (108) constitutes the elastic image according to the measurement value of displacement of the search direction.
