Ultrasound diagnostic device, shape estimation device, and system including said devices

Abstract

Provided is a method, device, and program that acquires multidirectional signals without requiring scanning, using multiple ultrasound probes embedded in a mat wrapped around body tissue for the construction and analysis of a three-dimensional structural model within the region of interest and transmission of results to users and shared recipients. The multiple ultrasound probes (3) are embedded within a flexible mat (2) that conforms to the shape of the body tissue and adheres closely to its surface. The ultrasound probes (3) transmit and receive multiple ultrasound reflection images, which are then processed by a computing unit (4) to integrate the data into a 3D structural model of the region of interest. The form, dynamics, and composition of the 3D structural model are automatically evaluated by the program, and the results are transmitted to the user's display or shared with remote systems.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
