IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18319408 titled 'IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an image display apparatus and control method for improving the interpretation efficiency of multiple ultrasound images.

  • The apparatus includes an analysis unit that collects probe positional information and imaging feature information of a lesion and imaging range in each ultrasound image.
  • An image extraction unit then extracts the ultrasound image that matches a specific display layout by referring to the probe positional information and imaging feature information.
  • Finally, a display controller displays the extracted ultrasound image on a monitor based on the display layout.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Medical imaging: This technology can be used in medical settings to enhance the interpretation of ultrasound images, allowing healthcare professionals to efficiently analyze and diagnose various conditions.
  • Research and development: The image display apparatus can be utilized in research and development of new ultrasound imaging techniques, improving the efficiency and accuracy of image analysis.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Interpretation efficiency: By extracting and displaying ultrasound images based on specific criteria, this technology helps healthcare professionals quickly identify and analyze relevant information, improving interpretation efficiency.
  • Image organization: The display layout ensures that the ultrasound images are presented in a structured and organized manner, making it easier for users to navigate and compare different images.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved efficiency: The image display apparatus streamlines the interpretation process by extracting and displaying relevant ultrasound images, reducing the time and effort required for analysis.
  • Enhanced accuracy: By providing a structured display layout, this technology helps users accurately interpret ultrasound images and identify important details, leading to more accurate diagnoses.
  • User-friendly interface: The organized display layout and intuitive controls of the image display apparatus make it user-friendly and accessible to healthcare professionals with varying levels of expertise.


Original Abstract Submitted

There are provided an image display apparatus and a control method of the image display apparatus which can improve interpretation efficiency of a plurality of ultrasound images. An analysis unit acquires probe positional information of an ultrasound probe, and imaging feature information regarding a position of a lesion part and an imaging range in each of the plurality of ultrasound images, an image extraction unit extracts an ultrasound image conforming to a display layout, from the plurality of ultrasound images by referring to the probe positional information and the imaging feature information, and a display controller displays the extracted ultrasound image on a monitor according to the display layout.
