Fetal ID section 22, patient attribute name 23, patient attribute section 23 for storing attributes related to each patient such as name, age, last menstrual day, fetal age, expected date of birth, and storage of fetal measurement results It is comprised by the fetus measurement data part 24 for doing. 2, only one storage area 20a among the plurality of storage areas 20a to 20c... Is illustrated in detail.

  Next, the operation at the time of screening of a multiple pregnant woman will be described with reference to the configuration of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus shown in FIG. 1 and the memory configuration shown in FIG. Here, a case will be described in which an operator (for example, a doctor, an ultrasonic measurement engineer, or the like) starts a medical checkup without knowing that the patient (pregnant woman) is a multiple pregnant woman. When starting a patient examination, an operator first displays a patient ID registration screen using the console 12, and the mother patient ID (for example, a combination of alphanumeric characters up to 27 characters is possible). Here, the patient ID is “F10”) from the console 12.

  Further, the operator inputs patient attributes such as the patient's name, age, last menstruation date, fetal age, and scheduled delivery date from the console 12. The patient ID input by the operator is stored in the patient ID selection memory 16 by the central control circuit unit 11 and simultaneously with a predetermined storage area 20a (patient ID “F10” in the patient database memory 15). It is stored in the patient ID section 21 of the allocated storage area (the same applies hereinafter). Information relating to patient attributes is stored by the central control circuit unit 11 in the patient attribute unit 23 of the storage area 20a. As a result, the storage area 20a related to the patient specified by the patient ID “F10” is prepared (secured or allocated) in the patient database memory 15, and the patient ID, the patient attribute, and the like are stored in the storage area 20a. Will be stored.

  Subsequently, when this patient is confirmed to be a multiple pregnant woman (a pregnant woman with multiple fetuses in the mother's body) by means of an image (B-mode image), etc. The operator presses a switch for selecting fetal identification using the console 12 (a switch for assigning identification information to one of the multiple fetuses when there are multiple fetuses). When one of a plurality of fetuses (hereinafter referred to as the first child for convenience) is selected by the operator, the central control circuit unit 11 selects that the first child has been selected. Stored in the memory 17. At the same time, the central control circuit unit 11 searches the patient database memory 15 for the storage area 20a in which the information of the patient ID that matches the patient ID stored in the patient ID selection memory 16 is stored. In the fetus ID section 22 of the storage area 20a related to this patient, a fetus ID for identifying the first child (for example, a combination of alphanumeric characters can be up to 3 characters. Here, the fetus ID is “A”). Remember.

  Next, regarding the first child, the operator measures BPD (biparietal diameter), FL (femur length), AC (Abdominal circumference), and the like. The central control circuit unit 11 stores each measurement result in the fetal measurement data unit 24 existing in the storage area 20a of the patient ID “F10” in the patient database memory 15.

  When the measurement of the first child is completed, the operator then presses a switch for selecting fetal identification using the console 12, and the fetus different from the first child (referred to as the second child for convenience). ) Is selected. When the second child is selected by the operator, the central control circuit unit 11 stores the fact that the second child has been selected in the multiple selection memory 17 as fetus ID = “B”, and patient ID A storage area 20a in which information of a patient ID that matches the patient ID stored in the selection memory 16 is stored is searched from the patient database memory 15. As a result, the storage area 20a in which information related to the patient ID “F10” is stored is searched for, as in the case of the first child.

  Next, the central control circuit unit 11 stores the contents of the patient ID part 21 and the patient attribute part 23 in the storage area 20a of the patient ID “F10” in another vacant storage area (for example, the storage area 20b). ). Each measurement result regarding the second child is stored in the fetal measurement data section 24 in the storage area 20b. In this way, information relating to different fetuses (first and second children) existing in the same patient (multiple pregnant women) is stored in each of the storage areas 20a and 20b, and even when the patient is a multiple pregnant woman. Various data related to a plurality of fetuses are stored without being confused.

  As described above, the patient ID related to the patient selected by the operator (the patient currently being examined) is stored in the patient ID selection memory 16, and the fetus ID related to the fetus (the fetus currently being examined) selected by the operator. Is stored in the multiple selection memory 17. That is, the identification information of the patient and fetus currently selected by the operator is stored in the patient ID selection memory 16 and the multiple birth selection memory 17, whereby the central control circuit unit 11 can determine which fetus of which patient. It is possible to easily grasp whether or not the data is to be recorded.

  Each data generated during the examination and each data stored in the patient database memory 15 are displayed on the display unit 7 in a form such as a report screen or a graph display screen of measurement data for confirming the degree of growth. Can be confirmed. Also in this case, the central control circuit unit 11 can easily distinguish the first child and the second child by referring to the multiple selection memory 17 and grasping the currently selected fetus. Therefore, for example, when the operator gives an instruction to confirm the past data of the fetus currently being examined on the display screen of the display unit 7, the central control circuit unit 11 stores the multiple selection memory 17. Referring to, for example, the fetus is identified as the second child, information related to the second child is read from the fetal measurement data unit 24 in the storage area 20b, and the graphic control circuit unit 13 and the graphic memory circuit are read out. It is possible to display on the display unit 7 via the unit 14 and the graphic synthesis circuit unit 6. When the fetus is selected by the operator, it is desirable to display the fetus ID and the like of the selected fetus on the display unit 7 so that the operator can easily grasp which fetus is selected. .

  In addition, in the above, at the stage where the screening is started in a state where it is not known that the patient is a multiple pregnant woman and it is found that the patient is multiple, the storage area related to the second child in addition to the storage area 20a related to the first child In the case where 20b is set, but it is known from the beginning that it is a multiple pregnant woman, registration of the fetus ID related to each of a plurality of fetuses is performed simultaneously with the input of the first patient ID, After setting a plurality of storage areas 20a to 20c... For each of a plurality of fetuses belonging to the same patient, the examination may be started or the fetus may be measured. Also in this case, when the operator selects the second child and presses the switch for selecting the fetal identification of the console 12, the multiple selection memory 17 indicates that the second child is selected. The information is stored, and the patient ID same as the patient ID “F10” in the patient ID selection memory 16 is searched from the patient database memory 15, and the patient ID part 21 and the patient attribute part 23 are stored in the patient database. Copying to a free area (for example, the storage area 20b) of the memory 15, and the second child examination is started.

  As described above, according to the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus in the embodiment of the present invention, the storage areas 20a to 20c for storing data for each patient and each fetus in the patient database memory 15 are stored in a large number. An area (fetal ID section 22) for storing an identifier for identifying a specific fetus among the fetuses is provided, and an association between the patient ID and the fetal ID for identifying each of the multiple fetuses is performed and selected. The multiple fetus development management can be performed by a simple configuration in which a multiple selection memory 17 is provided that allows a storage area to be specified when data is written to and read from the patient database memory 15 by storing a fetus. It can be easily performed.

  Further, according to this configuration, when there are a few unused areas in the storage areas 20a to 20c for each patient in the patient database memory 15 of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, the unused areas are used for multiple management. Patient data that can be used as a storage area and used in a previous ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus having multiple birth management functions, and patient data used in an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus having multiple birth management functions according to the present invention Even if the multiple management function is added, the database update in the patient database memory 15 becomes almost unnecessary.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the fetus is a twin has been described. However, triplets, quadruplets, quintuples, and data related to multiple fetuses that can be identified by fetal identifiers. Can be managed. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the upper limit of 27 characters and 3 characters at the maximum have been mentioned for the patient ID stored in the patient ID unit 21 and the fetus ID stored in the fetus ID unit 22, respectively. The limit of the input data amount in the storage areas 20a to 20c... Can be set to an arbitrary data amount depending on the memory size of the patient database memory 15 of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. In particular, for example, the fetus ID section 22 can be set to a maximum number of characters or characters so that a name (such as a name given after birth) that can be easily understood by an operator of an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus or a patient (pregnant woman) can be set as the fetal ID. Enables the use of any one of information, image information, audio information, color information, symbols, digital information, or a combination thereof, as well as the use of not only alphanumeric characters but also hiragana, katakana, kanji, etc. It is also possible to do. Moreover, in the above-mentioned embodiment, each data area of the patient ID part 21, the fetus ID part 22, the patient attribute part 23, and the fetus measurement data part 24 is stored in the storage areas 20a to 20c in the patient database memory 15. Although these data areas are set, the maximum data amount can be arbitrarily set according to the memory size of the memory 15 for the patient database, and any kind of data that can be stored can be set. It is. Further, for example, in the fetus measurement data section 24, ultrasound image information of the fetus (stationary tomographic image information, diagnostic image information such as Doppler, three-dimensional image information, tomographic image information reconstructed from three-dimensional image information, etc.) Can also be stored.

  In the above-described embodiment, fetal selection is mainly performed when a patient ID is input. However, fetal selection may be performed during display of a report screen, display of a graph, measurement, or the like. In the embodiment described above, the fetus is selected by the switch of the console 12. For example, a cursor or pointer is displayed on the display unit 7 and the cursor or pointer is operated by the console 12. It is possible to perform fetal selection on the graphic displayed on the display unit 7, and it is also possible to perform fetal selection using an LCD operation panel.
