WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/142037
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus (100) of an embodiment of the present invention is provided with a candidate position extraction unit (151), and a position setting unit (152). The candidate position extraction unit (151) extracts a first position by comparing fundamental wave components between a plurality of images collected by performing ultrasonic scanning on a subject who has been administered a contrast agent. Furthermore, the candidate position extraction unit (151) extracts a second position by comparing harmonic components between the plurality of images. The position setting unit (152) sets the first position and the second position to positions in a region of interest on which prescribed analyses are to be performed, in at least one of the images among the plurality of images.
