Abstract: Provided is a solid preparation having an excellent stability and being useful for treating or improving (or alleviating) a urination disorder regardless of the degree or presence of prostatomegaly. The solid preparation contains a 2-oxapregnane compound represented by the following formula (1) as an active ingredient, and a carrier. In the formula, R1 to R3 each represent an alkyl group such as a methyl group, R4 represents an alkylcarbonyl group such as an acetyl group, X represents a halogen atom such as a chlorine atom, and Y represents a hydroxyl group or oxo group bonded to the 11-position, 15-position, or 16-position of the steroid skeleton. The carrier contains a first carrier and/or a second carrier; the first carrier is not a metal salt-form, and the second carrier is a polyvalent metal salt-form of an inorganic acid.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a current position information of an ultrasonic probe in three-dimensional space. The processing circuitry is further configured to switch from a body mark indicating one body part to a body mark indicating the other body part, when a body mark indicating one body part of a pair of left and right body parts is displayed, and when the ultrasonic probe is positioned at a position farther than a predetermined distance from a midpoint of the pair of left and right body parts toward the other body part.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic device of an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires an ultrasonic image of a subject, executes processing for each step for each of one or more examination procedures registered in advance and including one or more steps including processing of acquiring the ultrasonic image, in which set images are associated, and registered, and determines a recommended step recommended to be executed subsequent to a current step or instead of the current step on the basis of a degree of consistency between a set image registered for each step and an ultrasonic image acquired in the current step that is being executed, and executes the recommended step subsequent to the current step or instead of the current step when the recommended step has been determined during execution of the current step.

Abstract: The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to a present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a contrast image and a vascular structure image which includes the vascular structure in an image acquisition mode capable of capturing the vascular structure. The processing circuitry is configured to extract data indicating the vascular structure from the vascular structure image. The processing circuitry is configured to superimpose the data indicating the vascular structure on the contrast image to generate a superimposed image. The processing circuitry is configured to display the superimposed image on a display.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is capable of receiving an operation instruction via a touch panel. The ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes a storage, an identification unit, and a controller. The storage stores association information in which operation instructions are each associated with a finger type. The identification unit identifies the finger type of a finger that has touched any position on the touch panel. The controller performs one of the operation instructions associated with the finger type identified based on the association information.
