Abstract
Disclosed are a medical indicator measuring method and an ultrasound diagnostic device therefor. The medical indicator measuring method according to an embodiment includes the steps of: an ultrasound diagnostic device acquiring ultrasound image data, extracting characteristic points from the acquired ultrasound image data, generating figure information configured from the extracted characteristic points, determining an anatomical structure from the generated figure information, and measuring a medical indicator on the basis of the determined anatomical structure.
Claims17
A medical indicator measuring method comprising the steps of:
- an ultrasound diagnostic device acquiring ultrasound image data;
- extracting characteristic points from the acquired ultrasound image data;
- generating figure information configured from the extracted characteristic points;
- determining an anatomical structure from the generated figure information;
- and
- measuring a medical indicator on the basis of the determined anatomical structure.
An ultrasound diagnostic device comprising:
- an ultrasound probe configured to emit an ultrasound signal to an object and receive a reflected wave signal from the object;
- an image processing unit configured to generate ultrasound image data using the reflected wave signal of the ultrasound probe;
