Abstract: An image processing unit (20) performs resolution conversion processing on an ultrasound image obtained on the basis of a reception signal, to generate a plurality of resolution images having mutually different resolutions. Furthermore, the image processing unit (20) performs non-linear processing on a difference image obtained by comparing the plurality of resolution images with each other, to generate boundary components related to boundaries included in the image. Moreover, a boundary-enhanced image is generated by performing enhancement processing on the ultrasound image on the basis of the generated boundary components.

Abstract: Provided is a technique for automatically extracting a cross section with a high degree of precision and at high speed, with avoiding problems of operator dependence and imaging target dependence, from 3D volume data or temporally sequential 2D or 3D images or 3D volume data, acquired by a medical imaging device, when determining the cross section used for diagnosis and measurement. An image processor of an imaging device is provided with a cross section extractor for extracting a specified cross section from imaged data. The cross section extractor determines the specified cross section by using a learning model trained in advance to output discrimination scores for a plurality of cross sectional image data, the discrimination score representing spatial or temporal proximity to the specified cross section. The learning model is a downsized model obtained by integrating a highly trained model having a large number of layers, with an untrained model having less number of layers, followed by retraining.

Abstract: A temporal change at each coordinate of interest which is spatially fixed in frame data of a plurality of time phases obtained by transmitting and receiving ultrasound is made understandable. A trace processor derives an amount of temporal change at each coordinate of interest of a plurality of coordinates of interest which are spatially fixed in the frame data over a plurality of time phases. The trace processor also derives an amount of spatial movement of each site of interest based on the amount of temporal change of each coordinate of interest near each site of interest. Further, the trace processor derives an amount of spatial movement of each site of interest for each time phase over a plurality of time phases in a trace period, and traces a motion of each site of interest in the trace period based on the amount of movement derived for each time phase.

Abstract: On the basis of voxel data for a plurality of voxels constituting a set of ultrasound volume data, a voxel group identifying unit 50 identifies, in said ultrasound volume data, one or more voxel groups formed by a plurality of voxels in which voxel data satisfy a condition of being linked. On the basis of the voxel data for a plurality of voxels corresponding to each voxel group to be displayed, from among the one or more identified voxel groups, an image forming unit 80 forms an ultrasound image in which the voxel groups to be displayed are indicated clearly in a selective manner. It is thus possible for a three-dimensional image to be formed in such a way that one part of the image, such as floating matter in the amniotic fluid, does not interfere with another part of the image, such as a fetus.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to use multiresolution decomposition to reduce image sections, such as fogging and stationary artifacts, which appear in an ultrasound image. An image processing unit (20) performs resolution conversion processing on an ultrasound image obtained on the basis of a reception signal, to form a plurality of resolution images having mutually different resolutions, determines, on the basis of the plurality of resolution images, a reduction degree for each section in the image, and forms an ultrasound image in which reduction processing has been performed on each section in the image in accordance with the reduction degrees.

Abstract: A region of interest setting unit sets a region of interest within image data for a tomographic image. The region of interest setting unit sets the region of interest to the heart of an embryo and partitions the region of interest into a plurality of blocks. A waveform generating unit generates an embryonic heartbeat waveform for each block of the plurality of blocks within the region of interest on the basis of the image data within the block. A waveform evaluating unit uses a standard waveform to evaluate the reliability of the embryonic heartbeat waveform for each block of the plurality of blocks within the region of interest.
