Abstract

An ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to an embodiment includes a processor. The processor acquires Doppler data that is obtained through ultrasonic transmission/reception in a Doppler mode and information about a type of the Doppler mode. The processor determines at least one executable measurement item for the Doppler data based on the information about the type of the Doppler mode.

Claims (14)

1 . An ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus comprising a processor, the processor configured to:

acquire Doppler data that is obtained through ultrasonic transmission/reception in a Doppler mode and information about a type of the Doppler mode; and

determine at least one executable measurement item for the Doppler data based on the information about the type of the Doppler mode.

2 . The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor automatically executes the at least one executable measurement item.

3 . The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor displays, on a display device, an operation button with which an instruction is made to execute the at least one executable measurement item.

4 . The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor determines the at least one executable measurement item based on a Doppler image generated from the Doppler data.

5 . The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor determines the at least one executable measurement item based on cursor position information indicating a position of a Doppler cursor.

6 . The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor determines the at least one executable measurement item based on a B-mode image that is used for the ultrasonic transmission/reception in the Doppler mode.

7 . A medical image processing apparatus comprising a processor, the processor configured to:

acquire Doppler data that is obtained through ultrasonic transmission/reception in a Doppler mode and information about a type of the Doppler mode; and

determine at least one executable measurement item for the Doppler data based on the information about the type of the Doppler mode.

8 . A non-transitory computer readable medium, the medium storing a program that, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform:

acquiring Doppler data that is obtained through ultrasonic transmission/reception in a Doppler mode and information about a type of the Doppler mode; and

determining at least one executable measurement item for the Doppler data based on the information about the type of the Doppler mode.
