Abstract

In the past, expensive ultrasonography devices existed only in hospitals, so they are expensive and inconvenient to undergo tests, so they can not easily undergo cancer / tumor tests.
To solve this problem, we invented an ultrasonic inspection device using a portable smart phone, so that the presence and size of tumors in the breast or neck can be confirmed more conveniently and cheaply.
To accomplish this goal, the ultrasonic generator of the portable smartphone was used to acquire the data and receive the data again, so that the image displayed on the screen of the smartphone can be easily diagnosed.

Description

{Convenient Tumor Scanner Using Smart Phone Ultra-sonic Wave}

Ultrasound technology, tumor detection technology

Many modern people suffer from cancer and tumors. Because they are mutations in the human body and they multiply randomly, rapid diagnosis is important because it is very difficult to be cured if metastasis to other organs occurs. The most commonly used technique for detecting tumors is ultrasound technology, which can be used to detect tumors. This technology is a technology that can diagnose the condition of the body by receiving and analyzing signals generated by emitting ultrasonic waves to the human body, and is used in various medical fields such as fetal condition check and tumor diagnosis. The present invention relates to an ultrasonic examination apparatus using a smart phone as a mobile communication terminal, and more particularly, to a mobile communication terminal equipped with an ultrasonic transmission / reception antenna and a wireless communication antenna, And an ultrasound examination apparatus using the terminal. The ultrasonic examination apparatus is used for the basic internal examination of the human body in many medical clinics. It is a device that allows the user to guess the problems inside the human body through the degree of reflection or transmission of the ultrasonic waves. However, since it is difficult to distinguish between the screen and the screen, it is very common to visit the clinic and check it out. It is very difficult to use it for self-diagnosis. In particular, such an ultrasonic examiner is configured to be able to provide the result of ultrasonic reception to the screen, so that it is complicated and delicate equipment to be handled with care. Recently, a portable ultrasound examination device has been developed to easily diagnose the health of livestock and fetus. However, since many additional devices are required to display the contents on the screen, the size of the device is more than the size of a laptop The price is also very expensive. Therefore, it is used only for a specific purpose and is not intended to be used for self-diagnosis in general households. In addition, such ultrasonic detectors amplify reflected waves transmitted through the internal organs of the human body and transmission waves transmitted through the ultrasonic transceivers, and provide the results as two-dimensional or three-dimensional images. This is an abstract image, Interpretation is impossible without a highly educated professional. Therefore, even when an individual performs a self-examination using an ultrasound examiner, it is difficult to read the result screen and thus it is impossible to know whether or not the abnormality is present. Therefore, there is no ultrasonic examiner developed for the purpose of being used at home for self-diagnosis. However, if the purpose is to determine the presence or absence of a relatively easy-to-understand tumor, the user can confirm this by simple ultrasonic examination if he / she knows the basic characteristics of the site. However, , There is no means and method for ultrasound examination. Therefore, it is necessary to visit the clinic and visit the clinic at a high cost for ultrasound screening. If the person feels constrained to such time and cost, Are frequently occurring.

In modern humans, rapid diagnosis is important as the incidence of cancer increases. In fact, ultrasound tests are time-consuming and costly, and it is not easy for the general public to undergo continuous testing at hospitals. In some cases, the patient misses the time, the disease progresses, and the life expectancy is lost. Therefore, it is easier and easier to diagnose the development of tumors, such as the need for a checker, our body is thicker subcutaneous fat layer, such as this test is easier.

For the implementation of the present invention, an ultrasonic wave generating and sensing device using a smartphone is used. The device is portable and can be continuously diagnosed, making it more convenient and periodically diagnose the condition of the human body.

By analyzing the detected pattern, it is easy to know the abnormality. By analyzing the difference from the previous pattern, it is possible to know whether a new tumor has occurred or a change in tumor size.

In addition, by making use of wireless communication function to make it portable device, ultrasonic generator and analyzing device can be analyzed by computer by software, You will be able to pursue convenience.

Through the present invention, it will be possible to diagnose a tumor that is more persistent and easy, especially in a breast or throat with many fat layers. Compared to previously examined patterns, the diagnosis of tumors does not require the use of precise ultrasound equipment, and therefore the cost of the device itself is expected to decrease, making it easier for people to diagnose tumors. Accordingly, it is possible to add a predetermined ultrasonic wave generating and receiving means to the smartphone and to receive a high voltage from the commercial power source capable of driving the means, and to provide a high quality user interface and a main control unit So that self-examination at home can be made at a relatively low price.

1] is an example of a device for receiving and inspecting signals from an ultrasonic wave generating device and an ultrasonic wave generating device.

Ultrasonic generation (1-3) is used to implement the present invention. This apparatus generates ultrasonic waves by the target organ 1-2 of the examinee 1-1. The generated ultrasonic waves are reflected by the affected part, and information about the foreign substance due to the density difference is processed by the receiving sensor 1-4. The data is analyzed using a smartphone analysis storage device 1-6 that can analyze the result of the ultrasonic experiment through the smartphone control device 1-5. Analysis of previous data was conducted to determine whether a new tumor or size of the tumor has changed.

1-2 Foreign body or tumor to be examined
1-3 Ultrasonic generator
1-4 Ultrasonic reception sensor
1-5 Control Device Attached to Smartphone
1-6 Smartphone analysis storage application that can analyze and store the received data.

Claims

The present invention relates to an apparatus for performing ultrasonic examination using a portable device such as a smart phone, receiving data through the wireless transmitting / receiving apparatus, and analyzing the occurrence and progress of tumors by comparison with previous data.
