  • Publication number: 20240050074
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a medical information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry determines whether or not a plurality of ultrasonic images are images collected by a stress echocardiography method. The processing circuitry adds attribute information to each of the ultrasonic images if it is determined that the ultrasonic images are images collected by the stress echocardiography method, the attribute information concerning at least one of a stress state of a subject and a slice of the ultrasonic image.

  • Publication number: 20190175142
    Abstract: The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to a present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to extract three-dimensional luminal region data out of volume data including a lumen. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a branch plane of the lumen based on the three-dimensional luminal region data. The processing circuitry is configured to divide the lumen based on the branch plane to determine sections. The processing circuitry is configured to estimate a plaque in each section of the sections based on the three-dimensional luminal region data. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate a maximum luminal wall thickness of the each section based on the plaque. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate a plaque score based on the maximum luminal wall thickness of the each section.

  • Publication number: 20190069881
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasound image diagnosis apparatus includes a display, an input circuit, and processing circuitry. The display is configured to display an ultrasound image generated in response to a reflected signal of ultrasound waves transmitted toward a target site to be diagnosed from an ultrasound probe. The input circuit includes a first button that is used to set a start point as a measurement start position and an end point as a measurement end position upon measuring the size of a measurement object on the ultrasound image displayed on the display. The processing circuitry is configured to cause the display to display the ultrasound image, and determine whether the end point is set with the first button or with a second button other than the first button.

  • Patent number: 10121272
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, the ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus includes a storing unit and processing circuitry. The storing unit is configured to store a plurality of images usable as a reference image to be referred to at the time of scanning, the plurality of images includes images corresponding to a plurality of cross sections. The processing circuitry is configured to read, when a cross section that needs to be scanned is switched in accordance with a workflow, from the storing unit one or more images registered for each of the plurality of cross sections in advance, the workflow defining a flow of procedures including scanning the plurality of cross sections. The processing circuitry is configured to display the read image as the reference image on a display.

  • Publication number: 20150015612
    Abstract: A medical report generating apparatus of the present embodiment includes a designation reception unit, an arrangement processor, and a medical report generator, and generates a medical report having an image arrangement region where medical images are arranged. The designation reception unit receives designation of a desired medical image designation from among one or a plurality of medical images acquired by a medical imaging unit. The arrangement processor determines an arrangement position of the desired medical image in the image arrangement region corresponding to an order of the designation of the desired medical image. The medical report generator generates the medical report by arranging the desired medical image at the arrangement position determined by the arrangement processor.
