ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18463218 titled 'ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus and a control method that make it easier for users to access information stored in a tag of an ultrasound image. The apparatus displays an ultrasound image with a breast schema image showing the position of the ultrasound probe during imaging. It includes a text information conversion unit that converts the probe's position on the breast schema image into text information, and a text information storage unit that stores this converted information in a tag attached to the ultrasound image.

  • The ultrasound diagnostic apparatus displays ultrasound images with a superimposed breast schema image.
  • A text information conversion unit converts the position of the ultrasound probe on the breast schema image into text information.
  • The converted text information is stored in a tag attached to the ultrasound image.
  • The tag allows users to easily access and retrieve the stored text information.

Potential Applications

  • Medical imaging and diagnostics
  • Breast cancer screening and diagnosis
  • Ultrasound-guided procedures and interventions

Problems Solved

  • Difficulty in accessing and utilizing information stored in ultrasound images
  • Lack of efficient methods to annotate and retrieve specific information related to ultrasound imaging

Benefits

  • Improved user experience and ease of use in accessing information
  • Enhanced efficiency in reviewing and analyzing ultrasound images
  • Facilitates communication and collaboration among healthcare professionals involved in ultrasound diagnostics


Original Abstract Submitted

An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus and a control method of an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus that enable a user to easily use information stored in a tag of an ultrasound image are provided. An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus () displays an ultrasound image on which a breast schema image showing a position of an ultrasound probe () in imaging is superimposed, and includes a text information conversion unit () that converts the position of the ultrasound probe () plotted on the breast schema image into text information, and a text information storage unit () that stores the text information converted by the text information conversion unit () in a tag attached to the ultrasound image.
