Zusammenfassung:There are provided an ultrasound image analysis apparatus, an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus, and a control method for an ultrasound image analysis apparatus capable of estimating a cancer risk of a mammary gland region based on an ultrasound image.A mammary gland region detection unit detects a mammary gland region from an ultrasound image obtained by imaging a breast of a subject. A glandular tissue component (GTC) region extraction unit extracts a GTC region including mammary ducts, lobules, and peripheral stromata in the mammary gland region from an ultrasound image. A GTC region ratio calculation unit calculates a ratio of the GTC region to the mammary gland region, and the calculated ratio is displayed on a monitor.
