The ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes a probe for transmitting an ultrasound signal to an object and receiving a response signal from the object; a detector for detecting a sensor signal including at least one of location information representing a three-dimensional location of the probe and orientation information representing an orientation of the probe on the object; a storage unit for storing the sensor signal associated with the response signal; and an image processor for forming an ultrasound image based on the received response signal, forming an image indicator based on the sensor signal stored in the storage unit, and forming a display image including the ultrasound image and the image indicator corresponding to the ultrasound image. | 10-03-2013 |
20130293569 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF DISPLAYING ULTRASOUND IMAGE - A method of displaying an ultrasound image, the method including: transmitting an ultrasonic signal to an object and obtaining vector Doppler data of a tissue included in the object based on a response signal that is reflected from the object; extracting a velocity magnitude of the tissue from the vector Doppler data of the tissue; and mapping the velocity magnitude of the tissue to a color scale and displaying a mapping result. | 11-07-2013 |
20140050381 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING AND DISPLAYING ULTRASOUND IMAGE - A method of managing an ultrasound image, the method including storing a plurality of pieces of setting information to respectively match a plurality of observation operations for diagnosing an object, each of the plurality of pieces of setting information including at least one from among information about an observation plane that splits ultrasound volume data in a predetermined direction, information about a split method of splitting the ultrasound volume data, and information about a reference point; displaying a plurality of plane images for a current observation operation, wherein the plurality of plane images are obtained based on a piece of the setting information matching the current observation operation; storing an image selected from among the plurality of plane images according to an external input signal such that the selected image matches the current observation operation. | 02-20-2014 |
20140107484 | METHOD FOR DISPLAYING ULTRASOUND IMAGE USING DOPPLER DATA AND ULTRASOUND MEDICAL APPARATUS THERETO - Color values of a Doppler image or Doppler data is considered together with a guideline displayed in the Doppler image, and thus a moving direction of a target body may be easily determined. Furthermore, by displaying a marker indicating a moving direction of the target body in the Doppler image, movement of the target body may be easily and efficiently recognized by using the guideline and the marker. | 04-17-2014 |
20140107487 | ULTRASOUND SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATING ULTRASOUND PROBE BASED ON MOTION OF THE ULTRASOUND PROBE - Provided are an ultrasound system and method for automatically activating an ultrasound probe based on motion of the ultrasound probe. The ultrasound system includes an ultrasound probe for transmitting an ultrasound signal to an object and receiving an ultrasound echo signal reflected from the object; a sensing unit for sensing the ultrasound probe and generating sensing information corresponding to motion of the ultrasound probe; and an automatic activation unit for activating the ultrasound probe based on the sensing information. | 04-17-2014 |
20150045673 | PROBE CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS - Disclosed are a probe control method and apparatus and an ultrasound system which apply a mounting signal used to sense a mounting status of a probe, detect the mounting signal transferred through a cable, and automatically activate/deactivate the probe according to a change in a sensed mounting status. | 02-12-2015 |
20150057546 | METHOD OF GENERATING BODY MARKER AND ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSIS APPARATUS USING THE SAME - A body marker generation method and an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus using the same are provided. The body marker generation method includes capturing an image of a subject by using a three-dimensional (3D) infrared sensor; acquiring position information indicating a position of a probe with respect to the subject; determining a diagnostic part of the subject based on the position information, the diagnostic part being a target object to which the probe transmits an ultrasonic signal; and displaying a body marker for the diagnostic part. | 02-26-2015 |
20150080735 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING ULTRASOUND INFORMATION BY USING GUIDELINES - Disclosed are an ultrasound information providing method and apparatus. The ultrasound information providing method includes generating a Doppler image from Doppler data of an object, acquiring a guideline indicating a moving path of the object in the Doppler image, correcting the Doppler data on the basis of an angle between the guideline and a beam axis of a probe, and displaying a Doppler image generated from the corrected Doppler data. | 03-19-2015 |
