Ultrasonic imaging method and device

An ultrasound imaging device, comprising:

• a probe;
• a transmitting circuit configured to excite the probe to transmit an ultrasonic wave to an object to be detected for volume scanning;
• a transmitting or receiving selection switch;
• a receiving circuit configured to receive, by the probe, an ultrasonic echo reflected from the object to be detected, so as to obtain an ultrasonic echo signal or data;
• a beam synthesis circuit configured to perform beam synthesis processing on the ultrasonic echo signal or data to obtain an ultrasonic echo signal or data which has been subjected to beam synthesis;
• a processor configured to:
• process the ultrasonic echo signal which have been subjected to beam synthesis, so as to obtain three-dimensional volume data of an uterine region of the object to be detected;
• identify an endometrium from the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region according to an endometrium image characteristic, so as to obtain position information of the identified endometrium, wherein the position information represents a position of the identified endometrium in the three-dimensional volume data;
• and perform imaging on the identified endometrium based on the three-dimensional volume data according to the position information of the identified endometrium, so as to obtain an image of the identified endometrium, wherein the obtained image of the identified endometrium comprises a Computed Multiplanar Reformation (CMPR) imaging of the identified endometrium, the CMPR imaging of the identified endometrium involves taking a trajectory curve of the endometrium in a section image of the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region, and the trajectory curve of the endometrium cuts away the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region to obtain a profile image of the trajectory curve of the endometrium;
• and
• a display configured to display the image of the identified endometrium.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• transmitting an ultrasonic wave to a uterine region of an object to be detected for volume scanning;
• receiving an ultrasonic echo reflected from the uterine region of the object to be detected, and acquiring an ultrasonic echo signal based on the ultrasonic echo;
• processing the ultrasonic echo signal to obtain three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region of the object to be detected;
• identifying an endometrium from the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region according to an endometrium image characteristic, so as to obtain position information of the identified endometrium, wherein the position information represents a position of the identified endometrium in the three-dimensional volume data;
• performing imaging on the identified endometrium based on the three-dimensional volume data according to the position information of the identified endometrium, so as to obtain an image of the identified endometrium, wherein the obtained image of the identified endometrium comprises a Computed Multiplanar Reformation (CMPR) imaging of the identified endometrium, the CMPR imaging of the identified endometrium involves taking a trajectory curve of the endometrium in a section image of the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region, and the trajectory curve of the endometrium cuts away the three-dimensional volume data of the uterine region to obtain a profile image of the trajectory curve of the endometrium;
• and
• displaying the image of the identified endometrium.
