Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An ultrasonograph of the present invention comprises a probe ( 1 ), a controller ( 3 ) connected to the probe ( 1 ), and a display ( 4 ) connected to the controller ( 3 ). The controller ( 4 ) causes the display ( 4 ) to display a detected image of a target object detected by the probe ( 1 ) and an angular position relationship image showing a relative angular position of the probe to the detected image of the target object. This enables even a non-expert to take accurate measurements.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An ultrasonograph comprising a controller to which a probe and a display are connected, wherein: based on an analysis on a detected image of a target object detected by the probe, the controller generates a positional relationship image showing a positional relationship between the probe and the target object, and causes the display to display the positional relationship image; the positional relationship image is displayed on a part of the detected…
