Title:
ULTRASOUND IMAGING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/027172
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This ultrasound imaging apparatus has a learning result as a relationship between shape data and ultrasound incoming data which are obtained by performing deep learning using pedestal shape data (arrangement of multiple elements) and ultrasound incoming data of a target to be imaged obtained through transmission and reception of an ultrasound signal between multiple elements. The learning result is then applied to ultrasound incoming data to obtain shape estimation data as data on an estimated shape of a pedestal (estimated arrangement of the multiple elements), and image data on the target to be imaged are configured on the basis of the shape estimation data and the ultrasound incoming data.
