Abstract

L’invention concerne un système de diagnostic ultrasonore ayant une section de détection ultrasonore (1) pour transmettre une onde ultrasonore à un sujet et recevoir l’onde réfléchie ; une région d’affichage d’image de diagnostic (8) pour afficher une image de diagnostic sur la base d’un signal d’image provenant de la section de détection ultrasonique ; une section d’affichage d’image (6) pour afficher des boutons de réglages (9), avec lesquels des conditions de réglage sont sélectionnées et utilisées, et un curseur (7) d’un dispositif de pointage ; et une section de commande (5) ayant une fonction pour régler et modifier des conditions de réglage sur la base d’instructions par une sélection et une utilisation des conditions de réglage. Le système de diagnostic ultrasonore a une fonction selon laquelle un menu contextuel est ouvert en pointant un bouton d’utilisation avec le curseur et une fonction selon laquelle une option est sélectionnée en la pointant dans le menu contextuel avec le curseur et ensuite l’option finalement sélectionnée est fixée en déplaçant le curseur sur une plage en dehors du menu contextuel. Un paramètre du bouton d’utilisation peut être sélectionné seulement par une utilisation du curseur du dispositif de pointage.
