Abstract: An ultrasound diagnostic device 101 is equipped with a probe distance determiner 7 and a screen creator 8. The probe distance determiner 7 analyses a positional relationship between a probe and an area subject to measurement appearing in an ultrasound image, and determines whether or not the analysed positional relationship is appropriate. The screen creator 8 notifies a user of determination results. An appropriate positional relationship is one in which a pixel region having luminance characteristics of a gelatinous medium is present between an element array of an ultrasound probe 102 and the area subject to measurement appearing in the ultrasound image, and in which the distance between the prove and the area subject to measurement exceeds a predetermined threshold across the entire length of the element array.

Abstract: An image processor including image processing circuitry including: a blood flow image obtainer that obtains a blood flow image in which a blood flow area is mapped, the blood flow area indicating blood flow in the examination subject; a tomographic image obtainer that obtains a tomographic image including an image of a body tissue inside the examination subject; a characteristic obtainer that obtains, based on the blood flow image and the tomographic image, a combination of a first characteristic being a characteristic of the blood flow area itself and a second characteristic indicating a relationship between the blood flow area and the image of a body tissue in the tomographic image; and a blood flow evaluator that evaluates a likelihood of the blood flow area indicating a new blood vessel, based on the combination of the first characteristic and the second characteristic of the blood flow area.

Abstract: An ultrasound diagnostic device including an ultrasound image acquirer that acquires a plurality of ultrasound image signal frames; an angle information acquirer that acquires angle information of an ultrasound probe when each frame is being acquired; an evaluation determiner that analyzes the frames to determine whether an object image portion is included; a disease score calculator that calculates a disease score that quantitatively indicates a degree of disease from a signal of the object image portion; and a display controller that makes the diagnostic image be displayed. A diagnostic image includes an ultrasound image of a frame selected from the frames, a disease activity information indicator that indicates a degree of disease, and an angle information image portion that indicates angle information.

Abstract: An ultrasound diagnostic device including a component specifier. Assume a first direction is a depth direction substantially perpendicular to a surface of a subject, a second direction is a direction orthogonal to the first direction, a first pixel is a pixel at a pixel location N in the second direction, a second pixel is a pixel at a pixel location N+1 in the second direction, and N is a positive integer. The component specifier detects one or more feature lines from the ultrasound image by repeatedly, while incrementing N, linking the first pixel with the second pixel when luminance of the second pixel is high and the second pixel is in close proximity to the first pixel, and specifies which of the one or more feature lines indicates a boundary between components, based on an order in the first direction of the one or more feature lines.
