Title:
VISUALIZATION OF 4D ULTRASOUND MAPS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2023004947
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a medical system.SOLUTION: The medical system includes an ultrasound probe for insertion into an organ of a body, and a processor. The ultrasound probe includes (i) a two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound transducer array, and (ii) a sensor configured to output signals indicative of a position, direction and orientation of the 2D ultrasound transducer array inside the organ. The processor is configured to (a) use the signals output by the sensor to register multiple ultrasound images of a tissue region, acquired over a given time duration by the 2D ultrasound transducer array, with one another, and (b) generate a map of the tissue region indicative of respective amounts of motion of tissue locations in the tissue region.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
