Specific embodiment
A kind of Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography reminding method provided in an embodiment of the present invention is explained below, by setting preset calibrations Point, and corresponding preset calibrations point whether is reached in automatic decision contrast agent development flow process, and automatic prompt is cured when reaching It is raw;Degree of concern of the doctor to contrast agent perfusion developing time in contrastographic picture can be reduced, diagnosis is checked so as to improve doctor Efficiency.
Purpose, technical scheme and advantage to make the embodiment of the present invention are clearer, below in conjunction with the embodiment of the present invention In attached drawing, the technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention is clearly and completely described, it is clear that described embodiment is Part of the embodiment of the present invention, instead of all the embodiments.Based on the embodiments of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art All other embodiments obtained without making creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The present embodiment is based on the basis of the monitoring of current radiography, by being made when machine control time in itself and contrast examination The time showing of different phases during shadow start to finish, is associated the infusion time at different phases to organs and tissues position, And different phases are made with prompting, assist the resolution for reminding doctor to observing phase;Improve effect when doctor checks.Specifically please With reference to figure 1, the flow chart of Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography reminding method that Fig. 1 is provided by the embodiment of the present invention;This method can include:
S110, in Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, in real time obtain contrast agent development flow process in contrast agent developed image;
S120, when the developed image meets preset calibrations point decision condition, then generate carrying for corresponding preset calibrations point Show information, and export the prompt message.
If it is unsatisfactory for preset calibrations point and sentences after the present embodiment judges the detection of the contrast agent developed image of present frame Fixed condition then continues to be detected the contrast agent developed image of next frame in contrast agent development flow process and whether judges it Meet preset calibrations point decision condition.The above process can be no longer performed after all preset calibrations points are prompted.
In Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, that is, activate and contrast agent is injected while radiography function, start Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography simultaneously Contrast agent starts to flow.Doctor needs to observe the process of contrast agent development at this time.The process of contrast agent development includes:From without to opening Begin development, gradually enhance, to most strong, then start to subside, to the last subside completely.According to the difference at radiography position, Yi Shengxu It the calibration point position to be paid close attention to may be different.Need the calibration point paid close attention to that can include under normal circumstances:Development starts, development Peak, development end etc..Therefore, the present embodiment is not defined the content of preset calibrations point, can will be general several A calibration point is set as preset calibrations point;It can also be self-defined default according to the practical radiography demand at the organs and tissues position of radiography Calibration point.In Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, in order to doctor can determine in time flowing developing time of the contrast agent in patient with And at the time of reaching the corresponding stage, degree of concern of the doctor to contrast agent perfusion developing time in contrastographic picture is reduced, so as to carry Gao doctor checks the efficiency of diagnosis.Usual doctor can compare concern development peak and development terminates, it is preferred, therefore, that this implementation Preset calibrations point terminates for development peak or development in example.
Optionally, described when the developed image meets preset calibrations point decision condition, then corresponding pre- bidding is generated Before the prompt message of fixed point, the method can also include:Pre-set preset calibrations point and its corresponding preset calibrations point Decision condition.
For example, the present embodiment determines this radiography before can entering ultrasonic contrast functional mode before radiography function is activated The calibration point prompted is needed as preset calibrations point, and determines the corresponding preset calibrations point judgement item of each preset calibrations point Part.Pass through the detection and analysis to contrast agent developed image in contrast agent develops flow process in this way, it is possible to determine present frame Contrast agent developed image whether be preset calibrations point, and when the contrast agent developed image of present frame is corresponding at the time of correspond to It is prompted when being carved into up to preset calibrations point.Started below with development, peak of developing, development terminates these three calibration points as pre- Illustrate the detailed process of the present embodiment for bidding fixed point:
Contrast agent is injected while activating radiography function, contrast agent starts to flow, when contrast agent reaches region-of-interest development When, the contrast agent developed image of each frame in contrast agent development flow process is detected in real time, judges contrast agent development figure Whether occurs contrast agent (whether meet development and start decision condition) as in, if then thinking the frame contrast agent developed image pair I.e. start time proves to reach beginning calibration point at the time of answering.The corresponding prompt message for starting calibration point of generation at this time, and Prompt message is exported, doctor can know clearly the mobility status of contrast agent development at this time when obtaining the prompt message.And The contrast agent developed image for continuing each frame in the development flow process of the contrast agent under docking is detected, and judges that contrast agent develops Whether image reaches the development top moment (whether meeting development peak decision condition), if then thinking that the frame contrast agent is shown I.e. the top moment proves to reach development peak at the time of shadow image corresponds to.The prompting letter on the corresponding development peak of generation at this time Breath, and export prompt message.And continue the lower contrast agent of docking develop each frame in flow process contrast agent developed image into Row detection, judges whether contrast agent developed image reaches finish time (whether meet development and terminate decision condition), if then Think that i.e. finish time proves that reaching development terminates at the time of the frame contrast agent developed image corresponds to.Generation at this time is corresponding aobvious The prompt message that shadow terminates, and export prompt message.
The present embodiment emphasis is to be when judging that a certain frame contrast agent developed image has reached some preset calibrations point, then Prompt message is exported to remind doctor note that so as to which doctor is contributed to pass through the prompting of output when observing contrastographic picture Information (such as information of voice prompt) assists the resolution for reminding doctor to observing phase, that is, preset calibrations point, improves doctor and checks When effect.Therefore, the present embodiment does not limit the particular content of each specific preset calibrations point decision condition, i.e., unlimited The used specific detection method of the step for determining the contrast agent developed image in real-time contrast agent detection development flow process. As long as it can determine whether a certain frame contrast agent developed image has reached some preset calibrations point by used mode. User can select according to adaptations such as the hardware conditions of the ultrasonic device of actual use.
Further, due to not limiting the particular content of preset calibrations point decision condition, i.e., specific pre- bidding is not limited Pinpoint the judgement form of decision condition.It can be after the detection to contrast agent developed image, by testing result and each The corresponding preset calibrations point decision condition of preset calibrations point is all compared judgement to confirm whether it reaches some pre- bidding Fixed point.For example, it may be after the detection to contrast agent developed image, testing result is started respectively with development decision condition, Development peak decision condition and development terminate decision condition and are all compared judgement, see it is which preset calibrations point belonged to Or it is all not belonging to.It can also be that the sequencing to arrive according to preset calibrations point is ranked up, according to clooating sequence, compare successively Whether belong to the corresponding preset calibrations point of preset calibrations point compared before this compared with the contrast agent developed image judged after detecting Decision condition.Judge whether to meet after the detection of contrast agent developed image in the flow process that develops to contrast agent in the present embodiment During preset calibrations point decision condition, in order to improve judgement speed, calculation amount is reduced.It is only corresponding with current time default at this time Calibration point decision condition is compared judgement.
Below with development start, develop peak, development terminate these three calibration points as illustrate for preset calibrations point originally The detailed process of embodiment:The judgement sequence of each preset calibrations point decision condition is determined first;I.e. first judges that development starts Decision condition, second judges development peak decision condition, and third judges that development terminates decision condition.Secondly it is suitable according to judging Sequence first carries out the detection by contrast agent developed image in the flow process that develops in real time to contrast agent, judges whether that meeting development opens Beginning decision condition;If satisfied, then transferring the prompt message that corresponding development starts, and export prompt message.It is opened reaching development Development peak decision condition is chosen after beginning as basis for estimation, passes through radiography in the flow process that develops in real time to following contrast agent The detection of agent developed image judges whether to meet development peak decision condition;If satisfied, then transfer the prompting on corresponding development peak Information, and export prompt message.Development is chosen after development peak is reached and terminates decision condition as basis for estimation, passes through reality When to following contrast agent develop flow process in contrast agent developed image detection, judge whether meet development terminate judgement item Part;If satisfied, then transferring the prompt message that corresponding development terminates, and export prompt message.Judged successively by judgement sequence Mode can improve every time to the contrast agent developed image judging efficiency after detection, improve and determine setting calibration point constant speed really Degree.Improve the promptness of output prompt message.
In the present embodiment, however, it is determined that the corresponding contrast agent developed image of present frame reaches some at the time of correspondence default During calibration point, need to export the corresponding output information of preset calibrations point, so that doctor is reminded to pay attention to.Therefore, as long as reaching Prompt message is exported during some preset calibrations points in time and reminds doctor.The present embodiment is not to the specific of prompt message Setting is defined.Such as each preset calibrations point can correspond to same prompt message or each is default Calibration point all has its specific prompt message, such as development starts corresponding beginning prompt message, and development peak carries Ying Gaofeng Show information, development terminates corresponding end prompt message.Equally, the particular content of prompt message can also voluntarily be set by user, Or it is configured to facilitate its identification by doctor.The present embodiment is not defined this.
Further, the present embodiment does not also limit the specific output form of output prompt message.Such as can be voice prompt, Can be text prompt or indicator light prompting.The present embodiment does not limit the specific implementation form of each output form yet. For example, in voice prompt can by voice reading characters content come export or by different sound numbers come Prompting.It can be exported in text prompt by pop-up to export or by annotating frame.It is timely for the ease of doctor Clearly obtain prompt message, it is preferred that the present embodiment exports information of voice prompt.Assisted by exporting information of voice prompt The resolution for reminding doctor to observing phase is helped, improves effect when doctor checks.Such as during the flowing by developing to contrast agent Between different phase calibration, that is, multiple preset calibrations point (setting alternative sounds prompt tone), can help to check that doctor is more convenient Make diagnosis, be also beneficial to simplify doctor operating process.
Based on above-mentioned technical proposal, Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography reminding method that the embodiment of the present invention carries passes through the pre- bidding of setting Fixed point, and corresponding preset calibrations point, and the automatic prompt when reaching whether are reached in automatic decision contrast agent development flow process Doctor therefore, it is possible to substantially reduce degree of concern of the doctor to contrast agent perfusion developing time in contrastographic picture, and then simplifies doctor The raw operation for carrying out ultrasonic contrast, so as to improve the efficiency that doctor checks diagnosis.
Since doctor needs flowing developing time of the contrast agent in patient (being based on as the foundation to diagnose the illness The contrast agent time that normal perfusion flows in the organs and tissues of required observation is as under basis for estimation premise background), thus it is defeated Go out that prompt message is more timely, closer to the diagnosis for being more conducive to disease simultaneously.I.e. when reaching some preset calibrations point just It exports simultaneously under the situation of prompt message at once, it, also just can be more at the time of doctor can more accurately obtain each stage and correspond to Add and accurately diagnose the illness.Accuracy and reliability of the promptness of further prompt message output dependent on positioning.I.e. Need determining for the preset calibrations points such as the time starting point developed during proper flow in internal organs to contrast agent, high peak dot, end point Position accuracy has certain requirement, these can influence the result of actual observation.
Therefore it based on above-mentioned any embodiment, specifically please refers to Fig.2, present embodiments provides developed image and meet pre- bidding When pinpointing decision condition, then generating the prompt message of corresponding preset calibrations point can include:
It please refers to Fig.2, the flow chart on judgement development peak that Fig. 2 is provided by the embodiment of the present invention;The process can wrap It includes:
S210, it calculates in the first continuous predetermined quantity frame number per the gray value of frame contrast agent developed image;
Whether S220, the gray value of intermediate frame developed image for judging the described first continuous predetermined quantity frame number are maximum Value;
S230, if so, determine the preset calibrations point for development peak, generation development peak the first prompt message;
S240, if it is not, then judge be not development peak.
The present embodiment is by judging contrast agent developed image gray value come at the time of finding out contrast imaging development peak.Its In, the concrete numerical value of the first continuous predetermined quantity frame number is not limited in the present embodiment.The quantity for selecting successive frame is more, judgement More accurate, corresponding take can also increase, i.e., the judgement on perfusion development peak is relied on ultrasonic device image operation frame frequency and Display frame frequency, otherwise prompt message and practical developed image have certain interval time difference, when the interval time difference is excessive not Can accomplish real-time prompting, can only freeze playback when ability real-time prompting.It needs to be carried out according to the computing capability of actual hardware true It is fixed.Combining accuracy and promptness, it is preferred that the first continuous predetermined quantity frame number is to meet the maximum frame number checked.Example Continuous 7 frame contrast agent developed image can be chosen as the computing capability according to current ultrasonic device, calculates each frame respectively The corresponding gray value of contrast agent developed image.When the corresponding gray value of present frame contrast agent developed image is maximum value, you can With determine present frame corresponds at the time of i.e. development peak at the time of.The first continuous predetermined quantity is in before present frame under normal circumstances The centre position of frame number.Therefore the first continuous predetermined quantity can be with selected as odd number.Such as choose continuous 7 frame contrast agent development figure Picture, present frame are the position in the 4th frame.
Therefore it based on above-mentioned any embodiment, specifically please refers to Fig.3, present embodiments provides developed image and meet pre- bidding When pinpointing decision condition, then generating the prompt message of corresponding preset calibrations point can include:
S310, calculate the second continuous predetermined quantity frame number every frame contrast agent developed image gray value;
S320, judge the described second continuous predetermined quantity frame number intermediate frame contrast agent developed image gray value whether most It is small, and the gray scale of the contrast agent developed image of the gray value and intermediate frame of every frame contrast agent developed image after the intermediate frame Within a preset range whether the difference of value;
If S330, being, determine that the preset calibrations point terminates for development, the second prompt message that generation development terminates;
If not S340, being, judgement is not that development terminates.
At the time of the present embodiment is terminated by judging contrast agent developed image gray value to find out contrast imaging development.Its In, the concrete numerical value of the second continuous predetermined quantity frame number is not limited in the present embodiment.It can be according to the calculating of actual hardware Ability is determined.The quantity for selecting successive frame is more, and judgement is more accurate, and corresponding take can also increase, i.e., development is terminated Judgement rely on ultrasonic device image operation frame frequency and display frame frequency, otherwise can extend the review time.In order to improve detection effect Rate is combining accuracy and promptness, it is preferred that the second continuous predetermined quantity frame number is to meet the maximum frame number checked.Example Continuous 7 frame contrast agent developed image can be chosen as the computing capability according to current ultrasonic device, calculates each frame respectively The corresponding gray value of contrast agent developed image.Present frame is in the centre position of successive frame under normal circumstances.Therefore second is continuous Predetermined quantity can be with selected as odd number.Such as continuous 7 frame contrast agent developed image is chosen, present frame is the position in the 4th frame. The concrete numerical value of preset range is not limited in the present embodiment, can be a minimum, approximation is interpreted as not having, thus It can represent in the contrast agent developed image that this thing obtains substantially without contrast agent.I.e. angiographic procedure can terminate.
Here decision condition can be understood as assuming continuous N frames, and N is odd number, and intermediate frame is the frame of (N+1)/2, that Judge that the condition that development terminates is:In continuous N frame images, in the preceding frame image of (N+1)/2 the frame gradation of image of (N+1)/2 and Minimum, the rear frame image of (N+1)/2, per frame gradation of image and with the frame gradation of image of (N+1)/2 and absolute value of the difference | a | be less than δ。
For start mark point judgement, can directly will injection contrast agent at the time of as start time.
The first prompt message and the second prompt message can be different prompt message in the present embodiment.
The present embodiment can be improved every time by the improvement of calibration point judgment mode to the contrast agent developed image after detection Judging efficiency and accuracy improve the reliability for determining setting calibration point.Improve the promptness of output prompt message.
The calculation of the corresponding gray value of contrast agent developed image is not defined, please referred in above-described embodiment Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, based on above-described embodiment, the calculation of the gray value of contrast agent developed image can include:
The contrast agent developed image is subjected to image gray processing processing and image binaryzation processing, is schemed after being handled Picture;
The gray value of pixel each in image after the processing is added to obtain the gray scale of the contrast agent developed image Value.
Wherein, image gray processing is that coloured image is transformed into the process of gray level image to be known as at the gray processing of image Reason.The color of each pixel in coloured image has tri- components of R, G, B to determine, and each component has 255 intermediate values can use, in this way One pixel can have the variation range of the color of more than 1,600 ten thousand (255*255*255).And gray level image is tri- points of R, G, B A kind of identical special coloured image is measured, the variation range of one pixel is 255 kinds, so in Digital Image Processing kind It is general that the image of various forms is first transformed into gray level image so that the calculation amount of subsequent image becomes few.Gray level image Description still reflected as coloured image entire image entirety and part coloration and brightness degree distribution and spy Sign.Arithmetic speed can be greatly improved in this way.Mean value method may be used to realize in gray processing processing in the present embodiment.Ask Go out the average value of tri- components of R, G, B of each pixel, then this average value is given to three components of this pixel. Specific formula is as follows:Wherein, Gray (i, j) is the gray value of each pixel.Gray (i, j)=(R (i, j)+G (i, j)+B (i,j))/3。
Wherein, image binaryzation be by the gray value of pixel on image by appropriate threshold value selection be set as 0 or 255, for reflecting image entirety and local feature.Kittle algorithms may be used in image binaryzation processing in the present embodiment, The average value of the gradient gray scale of entire image is calculated, using average value as threshold value.255 are set as more than threshold value in image, is less than Threshold value is set as 0.Image binaryzation also plays the effect of removal partial noise.User can select to carry out according to actual conditions Binary conversion treatment or without binary conversion treatment.Preferably, a switch can be set in the present embodiment, and commissioning staff is optional Select be turned on or off the switch carry out realize perform image binaryzation processing and do not perform image binaryzation processing.
Due to contrast agent, some tissue is bigger during perfusion, and doctor concern region it is smaller or It is the possible more than one of tissue that it passes through, at this time it is possible that multiple preset calibrations point is prompted during being prompted (i.e. the perfusion of contrast agent normal tissue also has peak period), such as the prompting of development peak.Doctor is also noted that one at this time It is lower its whether be normal structure prompt message.Doctor can not be made easily to get key message.Therefore in order to ensure to carry Show the key of information, do not reresent irrelevant information.Can increase can accurately distinguish be in lesion tissue developer pay close attention to it is pre- The technological means of development preset calibrations point in bidding fixed point (such as peak of developing) or normal structure.
Preferably, based on above-mentioned any embodiment, the present embodiment obtains contrast agent development in real time in Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography Contrast agent developed image in flow process includes:
Target position information input by user is received, and the concern area of ultrasonic contrast is determined according to the target position information Domain;
In Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, contrast agent of the contrast agent in the region-of-interest develops flow process is obtained in real time and is shown Shadow image.
Specifically, the present embodiment is by determining that region-of-interest, such as doctor choose focal area as region-of-interest in advance, Subsequent prompt message is only for the prompting of preset calibrations point in region-of-interest.I.e. after the region-of-interest of ultrasonic contrast is determined, Under ultrasonic contrast functional mode, contrast agent of the real-time contrast agent detection in the region-of-interest develops flow process, which develops, schemes Picture;When the developed image meets preset calibrations point decision condition, then the prompt message of corresponding preset calibrations point is generated, and defeated Go out the prompt message.
The form of input target position information is not limited in the present embodiment.Such as user can be arrived by motion track ball Corresponding lesion tissue position determines the region-of-interest of ultrasonic contrast.Or region-of-interest frame is determined (here not by click Limit the shape of the region-of-interest frame, for example, rectangle) starting point, and dragged and drawing direction zooms in or out concern The size of regional frame finally determines the region-of-interest of ultrasonic contrast.
