Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment acquires a tomogram of a subject and displays the tomogram, based on a reception signal which is obtained by transmitting/receiving ultrasonic waves to/from the subject. The apparatus comprises maximum value memory circuitry, select circuitry, and an ultrasonic output controller. The maximum value memory circuitry stores a maximum value of an index value relating to an ultrasonic output, with respect to each of scan regions of the subject. The ultrasonic output controller acquires, from the maximum value memory circuitry, the maximum value of the index value corresponding to the scan region selected by the select circuitry, and controls the ultrasonic output such that the ultrasonic output does not exceed the maximum value of the index value.

Abstract: In an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment, a separator separates an arbitrary region of a displayed object represented from image data, in a depth direction, based on a characterizing quantity included in the image data. An image generation controller generates an image to be displayed in which depth direction information is reflected on the arbitrary region of the displayed object, separated by the separator. A display controller causes a monitor being capable of providing a stereoscopic vision to display the image to be displayed generated by the image generation controller.

Abstract: A medical image diagnosis apparatus including an image collection system that collects first dynamic images extending over a first period and a display control circuit that uses the first dynamic images and time information related to an image corresponding to a first predetermined time phase in the first period to simultaneously display the first dynamic images, the first predetermined time phase, and a relationship of the image currently displayed with a time phase in the first period at least in a predetermined period going back from the predetermined time phase in a monitor.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a transmission processing unit transmits, to a subject via the ultrasonic probe, ultrasonic waves corresponding to a Doppler mode and remaining modes. A reception processing unit receives the ultrasonic wave reflected by the subject via the ultrasonic probe as an echo signal. An ultrasonic image generation unit generates images in the Doppler mode and the remaining modes based on the echo signal. A control unit changes a ratio of transmission of the ultrasonic wave corresponding to the Doppler mode to transmission of the ultrasonic waves corresponding to the remaining modes in accordance with a degree of a pulsatory of the subject.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes a tomographic image data generator, a blood flow information generator, a change detector, and a condition changing unit. The tomographic image data generator sequentially obtains tomographic image data of a subject for a plurality of times. The blood flow information generator performs processing on a reception signal based on signal processing conditions including a velocity threshold related to blood flow information of the subject to obtain the blood flow information. The change detector detects the magnitude of change in the time axis direction of a plurality of pieces of tomographic image data for different times. The condition changing unit changes the signal processing conditions based on the magnitude of change in the time axis direction. When the signal processing conditions are changed, the blood flow information generator performs the processing based on changed signal processing conditions.

Abstract: An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus according to an embodiment includes a transmitting and receiving unit, a detecting unit, and a chart display unit. The transmitting and receiving unit transmits an ultrasound pulse to a subject and receives an echo signal from the subject. The detecting unit detects thrombi that are present in the blood of the subject from the echo signal and generates numerical value information that quantifies a thrombus detection result. The chart display unit displays a chart indicating the thrombus detection result on a display unit, on the basis of the numerical value information.
