ULTRASONIC IMAGE DISPLAY THROUGH COMBINING THE FLOW IMAGING ENFORCED BY B MODE AND COLOR FLOW MODE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means of displaying an image of a subject by combining the data from a gray scale operating mode and the data from a color flow operating mode. SOLUTION: Receiving signals in response to echo ultrasonics received from a subject (S) are produced by a transducer (10)...

Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means of displaying an image of a subject by combining the data from a gray scale operating mode and the data from a color flow operating mode. SOLUTION: Receiving signals in response to echo ultrasonics received from a subject (S) are produced by a transducer (10) of an ultrasonic system (1) and the gray scale data indicating various in vivo movements of a subject (the blood flow, the blood or the motion of a contrast medium in the tissue) are generated in a gray scale receiving channel (8G) and the color flow data (for example, either the power data or the speed data) also indicating various movements of a subject are created in a color flow receiving channel (9C). The results to be obtained by a processor (30) that combines the gray scale flow data and the color flow data are displayed on a monitor screen (19), when the movements of a subject are displayed in colored gray scale images.
