The basic handling flow of ultrasonic imaging corresponding to the present embodiment and principle are essentially identical with the prior art, wherein The present embodiment and existing puncture enhancing technology it is maximum the difference is that:It needs to be judged by user in existing puncture enhancing technology The large deflection angle degree of ultrasonic probe is simultaneously adjusted manually, and the large deflection angle to ultrasonic probe is then automatically performed in the present embodiment The judgement and adjusting of degree enhance to remain the optimal display result for puncturing enhancing especially by being punctured in the present embodiment Puncture intensifier 40 included by system is realized.
Wherein, the puncture intensifier 40 further comprises:
Increase transmitting module 401, is scanned for the ultrasonic probe transmitting large deflection angle ultrasonic wave described in epicycle to increase When strong display puncture needle image, the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave for emitting several different launch angles is scanned;

In the present embodiment, ultrasonic probe 10 is all periodically to emit large deflection angle ultrasonic wave, the wherein tool of transmit cycle Body setting is unlimited, and for how to be automatically performed the judgement of the large deflection angle degree to next period ultrasonic probe 10, the present embodiment Realization principle specifically by first capture and identify current puncture needle 20 carry out puncture procedure during insertion be orientated (need It is noted that puncturing enhancing image for more real-time display, can further shorten the transmit cycle duration of ultrasonic wave), in turn It is counter to push away further according to the direction of the launch of ultrasonic wave under the large deflection angle degree relationship vertical with the insertion orientation of puncture needle 20 identified Go out the large deflection angle degree of next period ultrasonic probe 10.
The big deflection image of a frame can generally be increased under existing puncture enhancement mode, as shown in Figure 4.In the present embodiment, In the case that the ultrasonic probe 10 described in epicycle emits large deflection angle ultrasonic wave to enhance display 20 image of puncture needle, pass through increase Transmitting module 401 increases the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave of several different launch angles of transmitting so that puncture needle identification module 402 identifies The insertion of puncture needle is orientated, as shown in Figure 5, it should be noted that is not limited puncture needle 20 in the present embodiment and is inserted into orientation The launch time of identification method and specific waveforms ultrasonic wave point, such as after ultrasonic probe 10 emits large deflection angle ultrasonic wave again Transmitting, or emit simultaneously with large deflection angle ultrasonic wave, in addition, the ultrasonic probe of transmitting specific waveforms ultrasonic wave can be with transmitting The ultrasonic probe of large deflection angle ultrasonic wave is identical, can also be different, and is configured with specific reference to actual conditions.
Further alternative, in the present invention punctures one embodiment of enhancing system, the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave at least wraps It is in the plane wave of plane or the broad beam of almost plane to include transmitting sound field corrugated within the scope of ultrasonic listening, wherein wide wave Beam specifically refers to transmitting sound field wave beam within the scope of ultrasonic listening and shrinks wave beam that is limited and obviously not focusing.
In addition, in the present embodiment, module 403 is adjusted by large deflection angle, ensure that complete in each round image processing process At later all can adjust automatically next round ultrasonic probe 10 emit large deflection angle ultrasonic wave when corresponding large deflection angle degree, to The Continuous optimization of the enhancing display of puncture needle 20 is further ensured, and existing routine punctures the big deflection emitted under enhancement mode The launch angle of angle ultrasonic wave is fixed, thus can not ensure that the ultrasonic wave direction of the launch is vertical with the insertion of puncture needle needle body orientation, Thus enhancing display effect is poor.
In the present embodiment, since the orientation that is initially inserted into of puncture needle 20 is can be determined (namely just to open by user itself Begin to carry out the selected insertion angle of puncturing operation Shi doctor), therefore, it is super that big deflection is emitted for the ultrasonic probe 10 of the first round Corresponding large deflection angle degree is also that can equally be determined by user itself when sound wave, and follow-up, due to puncture needle 20 Into inside tissue, therefore, it is necessary to be used as the image of puncture procedure reference adjustment puncture angle by ultrasonic imaging, In, the certain histoorgans that can be avoided in human body are orientated by adjusting the insertion of puncture needle, and the insertion for adjusting puncture needle takes To the image needed with reference to next round ultrasonic wave, at this point, by puncturing intensifier 40 in the big of actual transmission next round Before deflection angle ultrasonic wave, increase the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave of several different launch angles of transmitting, to capture and recognize in advance The insertion of current puncture needle 20 is orientated, and then can determine vertical with the insertion of current puncture needle 20 orientation or approximately perpendicular side Launch angle to corresponding ultrasonic wave be next round ultrasonic probe 10 emit it is corresponding big when large deflection angle ultrasonic wave Deflection angle.
Wherein, it should be further noted that the insertion of the direction of the launch of ultrasonic wave and the puncture needle identified is orientated closely Seemingly vertical is specifically determined by the practical transmitting deflection angle supported of ultrasonic system equipment, if the launch party of ultrasonic wave It is vertical to that can be orientated with the insertion of puncture needle, then it is adjusted to the direction vertical with the insertion orientation of puncture needle, and if not Can, then it is adjusted to the insertion with puncture needle and is orientated best approximately perpendicular direction.
In the present embodiment, emit large deflection angle ultrasonic wave in epicycle ultrasonic probe 10 to enhance display 20 image of puncture needle In the case of, by increasing the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave of several different launch angles of transmitting, to which simplicity is rapidly completed to puncture needle The identification that 20 insertion is orientated improves doctor and carries out puncturing operation into the insertion angle direction without fixed puncture needle 20 The flexibility ratio of operation.Meanwhile according to the transmitting of ultrasonic wave under the insertion orientation and large deflection angle degree of the puncture needle 20 identified The insertion of direction and the puncture needle 20 identified is orientated vertical relation, and it is big partially to realize that adjust automatically next round ultrasonic probe 10 emits Corresponding large deflection angle degree when corner ultrasonic wave to reduce the complexity for puncturing enhancing manipulation, and makes 10 institute of puncture needle Corresponding ultrasonoscopy remains best enhancing display effect.
It is the refinement high-level schematic functional block diagram that one embodiment of intensifier is punctured in Fig. 1 with reference to Fig. 6, Fig. 6.Based on above-mentioned reality Apply example, in the present embodiment, the puncture intensifier 40 further comprises:
Picture frame generation module 404, for generating the picture frame corresponding to the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave and generating When picture frame corresponding to the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave, whole ultrasonic scanning lines of the picture frame are disposably generated.
Need to emit repeated ultrasonic wave when existing B ultrasound mode imaging to form the overlapping of ultrasonic wave emission lines, such as Fig. 7 institutes Show, and then can add up in composite wave bunch, as shown in figure 8, generating the picture frame corresponding to ultrasonic wave to reach When can enhance show the picture frame scan line, namely make scan image it is relatively sharp.
In the present embodiment, since each specific waveforms ultrasonic wave (such as plane wave) is directed to the puncture needle of special angle 20 detections, therefore the specific waveforms ultrasonic scanning of each angle only needs the part array element transmitting ultrasonic wave on ultrasonic probe 10 , and only need transmitting primary, without needing overlapping transmission as when conventional B ultrasound mode imaging, to greatly Ground reduces the time of transmitting ultrasonic wave, improves image processing speed.Namely as shown in figure 9, in the present embodiment, the increasing Add transmitting module 401 when the transmitting specific waveforms ultrasonic wave (such as plane wave) is scanned, is only sent out under same launch angle Penetrate the primary specific waveforms ultrasonic wave.
In addition, after ultrasonic wave transmitting, tissue and the meeting of puncture needle 20 ultrasonic scatterer or are reflected back ultrasound Probe 10, then echo data is converted into electric signal by each array element on ultrasonic probe 10, it is reconverted into digital letter by amplification Number handled and parsed, to obtain generating picture frame every emission lines echo data.Wherein, in the present embodiment, lead to It crosses picture frame generation module 404 and generates picture frame corresponding to the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave in composite wave bunch each time When, whole scan lines of the picture frame are disposably generated, namely without as needing to carry out in composite wave bunch under normal B-mode It is cumulative, as shown in Figure 10.
It should be further noted that in the present embodiment, transmitting specific waveforms ultrasonic wave is only used for determining next round transmitting Therefore corresponding large deflection angle degree when large deflection angle ultrasonic wave need to only ensure to identify that puncture needle is inserted into processing speed when being orientated Degree, and the clarity that scan image is formed by for transmitting specific waveforms ultrasonic wave requires, without doing excessive demand, to wear The enhancing display of pricker specifically comes out shown by the scan image corresponding to large deflection angle ultrasonic wave.
In the present embodiment, due to needing to capture in advance and identifying that the insertion in 20 piercing process of puncture needle is orientated, need Ensure ultrasonic scanning and image processing speed, so as to quickly adjust corresponding to next round transmitting large deflection angle image Large deflection angle degree, with improve puncture enhancing display real-time.Especially by primary transmitting specific waveforms ultrasonic wave (such as plane Wave) all scan lines needed for complete image are synthesized, to greatly improve the processing speed of ultrasonoscopy, and then can be with Realize the quick scanning to puncture needle 20 under different launch angles.
It is further alternative, in the present invention punctures one embodiment of enhancing system, it is based on above-described embodiment, the present embodiment In, the puncture needle identification module 402 is specifically used for:
According to the image frame data corresponding to the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave under several different launch angles, worn respectively Thorn detection process is to identify that the insertion of the puncture needle 20 is orientated, wherein by identification probability corresponding under different launch angles The insertion of the highest puncture needle 20 is orientated to be orientated as the insertion of the true puncture needle 20.
Include the spatial compounding of conventional B mode image in image buffer storage processing stage, in image buffer storage in the present embodiment Image corresponding to the specific waveforms ultrasonic wave for the multiple angles for increasing transmitting in picture frame, big deflection image frame and the present invention Frame, but in the gain and dynamic range transform in the post processing of image stage of ultrasonic imaging process flow, only to spatial compounding It is handled with the picture frame of big deflector, without handling determining the picture frame corresponding to ultrasonic waveform, such as Figure 11 It is shown.
After completing gain and dynamic range transform processing, the image data of specific waveforms ultrasonic wave is taken out, is entered Detecting step is punctured, is distinguished in the specific waveforms ultrasound image frame of multiple and different angles by puncture needle identification module 402 Puncture detection to identify that the insertion of determining puncture needle is orientated, finally most by identification probability corresponding under different launch angles The insertion of high puncture needle 20 is orientated to be orientated as the insertion of true puncture needle 20.
In addition, can also further be made by exporting the orientation parameter of puncture needle, and then module 403 being adjusted by large deflection angle Related hardware can adjust the large deflection angle degree of ultrasonic probe 10 before next round emits large deflection angle ultrasonic wave, big to make The direction of the launch of deflection angle ultrasonic wave it is vertical with the orientation of calculated puncture needle 20 or close to vertical to be worn The best enhancing display effect of pricker 20.In addition, for ease of user's reference, it can also be further when showing next frame ultrasonoscopy Draw out the deflection indication wire of ultrasonic probe 10.
When complete the processing to the image data of specific waveforms ultrasonic wave after, needs to take out in image buffer storage and cached The large deflection angle image data of this wheel, and enter the needle body identification step of puncture needle.Wherein, needle body identification step is examined with puncture The algorithm core for surveying step is consistent, namely the needle body place straight line parameter of puncture needle is found out from large deflection angle image data.Most Afterwards, further take out Conventional spatial it is compound after picture frame, by its picture frame with large deflection angle in needle body identification step obtained by Needle body where carry out natural fusion in straight line and near zone.
