    摘要: A system (100) and method (400) of acoustic imaging receives an acoustic signal that is scanned to interrogate a target volume within a subject (430), processes the received acoustic signal to produce three-dimensional acoustic image data for a region of interest within the target volume (450); and quantifies the contrast of the three-dimensional acoustic image data in the region of interest at a sampling time that is offset by a selected time period with respect to a time when a contrast enhancement medium is introduced into the subject's circulatory system (480). In one embodiment, quantification is performed by setting an intensity threshold (410), and determining a percentage of voxels of the three-dimensional acoustic image data for the region of interest which have an intensity value greater than the intensity threshold (470).

    摘要: A medical imaging system and method, the system including at least one controller which is configured to receive or receives first image information corresponding with one or more images acquired at a first time; receives second image information corresponding with one or more images acquired at another time; determines whether first coordinate information corresponding to one or more locations in the first image information has changed relative to second coordinate information corresponding to one or more locations in the second image information; and highlights the first image information based upon the result of the determination.

    摘要: A data acquisition method performed by one or more controllers includes receiving information related to a sequence of a plurality of images. The method further includes receiving, from an ultrasonic probe, image information corresponding to a current image of the plurality of images in the sequence. The method still further includes determining whether a caliper input has been received, and when it is determined that a caliper input has been received: obtaining coordinate information corresponding to one or more locations in the current image, selecting an other image which is different from, and associated with, the current image, and obtaining one or more coordinates corresponding to one or more locations in the other image. The method further includes saving a report including the image information and the coordinate information corresponding to each image of the plurality of images of the sequence.
