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.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasound image diagnosis apparatus includes a boundary detection unit, a measurement unit, and a display control unit. The boundary detection unit detects the boundary of a structure in a subject based on volume data generated from a reflected signal of ultrasound waves transmitted toward inside of the subject. The measurement unit measures the size of the structure based on the boundary detected by the boundary detection unit. The display control unit displays the cross section of the structure according to a definition that is set in the advance and related to the size of the structure measured by the measurement unit.

Abstract: The X-ray diagnostic apparatus according to a present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to: generate an X-ray image of an object by irradiating the object with X-rays; acquire an evaluation result of at least one of elasticity evaluation of a blood vessel of the object and thickness evaluation of a wall of the blood vessel of the object; generate a superimposed image in which the evaluation result is superimposed on the X-ray image; and display the superimposed image on a display.

Abstract: A medical image diagnosis apparatus includes a capturing part configured to photograph a target site of a subject to capture a medical image. The medical image diagnosis apparatus further includes a positional information acquisition unit, a guideline generator, and a display processor. The positional information acquisition unit acquires the positional information of a puncture needle inserted into of the subject. The guideline generator generates a guideline that indicates an insertion route for the puncture needle to reach the target site based on the positional information. The guideline includes scales graduated at predetermined intervals. The display processor displays the guideline with the medical image.

Abstract: The medical image diagnostic apparatus according to a present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to display an ultrasonic image and a non-ultrasonic medical image to a display. The processing circuitry is configured to determine which of a displayed ultrasonic image and a displayed non-ultrasonic medical image is live. The processing circuitry is configured to inform information indicating which any one of the displayed ultrasonic image and the displayed non-ultrasonic medical image is live in accordance with the determination.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes an ultrasound probe that transmits/receives ultrasound waves to/from a subject, a reference position member arranged on the ultrasound probe, and a sensor located in a position having a predetermined positional relationship relative to a puncture needle. The ultrasound diagnosis apparatus further includes a position information acquisition unit, a needle length information acquisition unit, and a display. The position information acquisition unit acquires position information of the reference position member and the sensor. The needle length information acquisition unit acquires needle length information indicating the length of the puncture needle based on the position information of the reference position member and the sensor when the tip of the puncture needle is in contact with the reference position member, and the relative position.

Abstract: Ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is provided which easily recreates test conditions same as the past, comprising scanner, signal processor, display controller, storage, detector, collator, and controller. Scanner scans a subject with ultrasound waves through ultrasound probe. Storage previously stores first relevant information in which operation of the scanner, the signal processor, or the display controller in past test is related to a first relative position which is the relative position of ultrasound probe for the subject in the same past test. Detector detects a second relative position which is the present relative position of ultrasound probe for the subject. Collator collates the first relative position and the second relative position detected by the detector. Controller controls the scanner, the signal processor or the display controller based on the operation related to the first relative position, when the first relative position and the second relative position are matched in collation.
