Description

兽用超声检查条件的确定方法及超声成像设备 技术领域
本申请涉及医疗技术领域，更具体地涉及兽用超声检查技术。
背景技术
近年来，随着超声检查技术的不断发展，以及兽用临床上的诊断方法越来越多，超声检查技术也被广泛运用于动物检查、动物的繁殖与产科以及畜牧生产方面。目前的兽用超声的检查对象已经可以包括各种体型的动物，包括大体积大动物，比如牛、羊、鹿等；以及小体积动物，比如猫、狗、兔等。不同动物类型，由于体型、结构等差异大，使用超声进行检查的图像、应用等条件也不尽相同。切换探头和检查模式是医生非常频繁的操作，几乎每个检查都要操作一次，即使相同类型的检查医生也要切换一次以复位调节过的图像参数。可见，传统的兽用超声成像设备，在检查条件切换时，还是靠医生手动切换。然而，在已经输入动物信息的情况下，基本可以推断合适的探头和检查模式，医生再次手动切换是一种重复的机械劳动，尤其在检查量较大时，会增加医生与设备的交互，增加时间成本。医生还会由于切换不便，尽可能地少切换探头，导致使用的探头并不是最合适的当前检查的，使得实际得到的超声图像效果降低。当医生对超声成像设备的操作特性并不熟悉时，可能无法一次性选到最适合检查对象的探头和检查模式，也会降低超声检查的效率。

应了解，步骤S210和步骤S220可以是同步进行；也可以是非同步进行，步骤S220也可以在步骤S210之间就已经完成，在此对步骤S210和步骤S220的顺序不做限制。
在一些实施例中，确定目标探头包括确定目标探头的型号或ID号。
在一些实施例中，动物信息还包括动物体重和/或动物年龄。
可选地，在步骤S210中，获取待测动物的动物信息包括：从用户输入信息和/或病例数据信息中获取动物信息。
在一些实施例中，从用户输入信息中获取动物信息可以是基于人机交互装置进行。具体来说，参见图3和图4，图3和图4示出了根据本申请实施例的用户输入信息的界面的示例。如图3和图4所示，人机交互装置可以通过显示装置(如显示器)向用户提供相应的操作界面，操作界面300中可以包括至少一个动物信息标识及对应的输入区域，用户可以通过输入装置(如鼠标、键盘或触摸屏)在至少一个相应的输入区域手动输入至少一个动物信息，包括：基本信息310，例如动物ID、性别、动物类型、姓名、动物编号、动物主人、生日、年龄、绝育状况等；检查类型320，例如腹部、生殖、心脏、血管、小器官等。进一步地，在检查类型的子页面下，还可以包括与该检查类型相关的动物信息，可以是输入该检查类型所需要的其他信息，如图3所示，腹部检查的子页面还可以输入身高、体重等信息；如图4所示，操作界面400中生殖检查的子页面410还可以输入怀孕次数、流产次数、分娩次数等信息。在用户输入待测动物的动物信息之后，通过触发预设标识(如点击确定)，则处理器获取该用户输入信息；进一步地，当检测到用户在输入区域有输入时，处理器可以通过获取模块自动获取用户在输入区域输入的动物信息。进一步地，处理器可以将用户输入信息存储在存储器中。
在一些实施例中，病例数据信息可以是事先存储的待测动物的动物信息。例如，医生对待测动物进行诊断时，确定要对待测动物进行超声检查，并在医疗数据系统中录入动物类型以及诊断信息，诊断信息可以包括待测动物的症状信息，要做的检查类型等等，这些信息可以存储在与医疗数据系统相关联的存储器中。当待测动物进行该类型的检查时，即可以直接从医疗数据系统获取事先录入的动物类型和检查类型，从而实现获取待测动物的动物信息。
在一些实施例中，病例数据信息可以是历史病例数据。例如，当前的超声检查可以是待测动物的复查，在此之前，已经做过同类型的超声检查，待测动物的动物信息已经保存在医疗数据系统中，那么，此时可以直接通过该待测动物的标识号(如ID号)从医疗数据系统查询该待测动物的动物信息并获取。
可见，通过直接从病例数据信息中获取动物信息，可以进一步减少超声检查的重复操作，从而进一步提高了超声检查的检查效率。应了解，上述从病例数据信息获取动物类型和检查类型仅为示例，并不旨在对获取的数据进行限制，在步骤S210中，还可以获取用户需要的任何信息，如动物体重、动物年龄等等。
在一些实施例中，还可以结合上述两种方式获取动物信息，即可以动物信息的至少部分来自用户输入信息，至少部分来自病例数据信息。例如，如图3和图4所示，用户可以从病例数据信息获取基本信息，并在检查类型的子页面中输入其他信息，如图3所示，用户可以从病例数据信息获取基本信息：动物类型为猫，而手动选择腹部检查，并在腹部检查的子页面中手动输入动物体重、身高等其他动物信息。如图4所示，同样地，用户可以从病例数据信息获取基本信息：动物类型为猫，而手动选择生殖检查，并在生殖检查的子页面中手动输入胎数、LMP(Last Menstrual Period，末次月经日期)、怀孕次数、流产次数、分娩次数或异常怀孕次数等中的至少一个其他动物信息。
可选地，在步骤S220中，确定当前可用探头以及所支持的检查模式，包括：
检测当前所有探头的连接状态，确定已建立连接的探头为可用探头；
基于探头与检查模式的预设映射关系，得到所支持的检查模式。
其中，超声成像设备可以配置一个或多个超声探头供用户选择，由于超声探头的使用频率较大，可能会出现连接异常，如断开等各种问题，导致所配置的超声探头并不是随时可被使用，传统的兽用超声检查中，用户手动选择探头很有可能选择的探头无法使用，用户需要再进行选择，增加了用户的操作和重复劳动，降低了检查的效率。根据本申请实施例，在自动确定适合待测动物的目标探头之前，可以通过检测所有探头是否可用，可以进一步缩小探头的选择范围，以更快速地获得合适的检查探头。
在一些实施例中，检测当前所有探头的连接状态可以包括：检测所有探头的连接插槽的连接状态。具体地，依次检测每个探头的连接插槽，如果检测到当前连接插槽有探头连接，则获取该探头的型号，该探头作为可用探头；如果检测到当前连接插槽没有探头连接，则检测下一个探头，直至获取所有与连接插槽建立连接的探头的型号。
进一步地，在一些实施例中，可以将每个可用探头与其对应的连接插槽的编号关联地显示。这样，便于用户直接可以通过连接插槽的编号快速地找到对应的探头进行超声检查，进一步减少用户的工作量，提高超声检查的效率。
在一些实施例中，方法200还可以包括：设置探头与检查模式的预设映射关系。
其中，探头与检查模式的预设映射关系可以是由超声成像设备出厂设置的，也可以由用户设置或修改。通过探头与检查模式的预设映射关系，可以直接快速地获取每个可用探头及其所支持的检查模式。
具体来说，参见图5，图5示出了根据本申请实施例的预设映射关系的设置示例。如图5所示，人机交互装置可以通过显示装置(如显示器)向用户提供相应的预设映射关系的设置界面，预设映射关系的设置界面500中可以包括：
探头的型号选项510，通过选择型号选项510中的内容可以更换探头的型号；
动物类型标识520，用于以直观的图画形式和/或文字形式标识不同的动物类型，可以位于一行。其中，动物类型也可以由用户进行设置，如可以根据需要仅根据动物种类进行设置，如，狗、猫、马等等；还可以如图5所示根据动物种类及其体重进行更细的分类设置，如狗<5(kg)、狗5-15(kg)、狗>15(kg)、猫、其他动物等等；
检查模式标识530，位于对应的动物类型标识520的同一列中，用于标识该列动物类型标识520所对应的检查模式。如图5所示，位于狗<5(kg)这一列有腹部和小器官两种检查模式标识，则该检查模式标识表示狗<5(kg)腹部检查模式和狗<5(kg)小器官检查模式。
参见图5，用户可以通过输入装置(如鼠标、键盘或触摸屏)在探头的型号选项510中选择要设置的探头的探头型号L13-3,在检查模式标识530中设置L13-3探头可以用来检查的检查模式，如狗<5(kg)腹部检查模式、狗<5(kg)小器官检查模式、狗5-15(kg)小器官检查模式、狗>15(kg)小器官检查模式、猫腹部检查模式、猫小器官检查模式、其它动物腹部检查模式、其它动物小器官检查模式。用户可以对上述设置进行保存，则完成了对探头型号L13-3及其检查模式的预设映射关系的设置。同样地，用户还可以对其他型号的探头设置预设映射关系。应了解，用户也可以根据需要对预设映射关系中的内容进行修改。
可选地，方法还包括：
统计每个探头所支持的每种检查模式的使用频率、使用总次数和使用总时长中的至少一种，得到每个探头的历史使用数据。
其中，在超声设备的实际使用过程中探头的使用情况可以反映出用户的使用习惯，用户在使用过程中，对于某种动物的检查类型，会频繁使用用户认为检查效果好的探头型号进行检查，该探头的使用频率和使用时长都会相应增加，所以通过统计探头及其支持的每种检查模式的使用情况，可以从实际操作的角度，利用统计学原理帮助用户快速确定合适的探头，保证了超声检查的效果，这给对超声设备不熟悉或经验较少的用户来说提供了极大的便利。
在一些实施例中，每个探头所支持的每种检查模式的使用频率可以包括：在预设时间段内，每个探头所支持的每种检查模式所使用的次数。例如，预设时间段可以是一周、一个月或一个季度等等，可以统计每个探头的每种检查模式在一个月之内使用的次数作为该探头的每种检查模式的使用频率。
在一些实施例中，每个探头所支持的每种检查模式的使用总次数可以包括：每个探头所支持的每种检查模式的累计使用次数。
进一步地，在上述实施例中，可以将探头采用的检查模式的时间达到第一预设时长时，认为该探头的该种检查模式使用一次。对某种动物进行某种类型的超声检查时，用户对于他认为不好的当前使用探头及探头的检查模式，会进行切换，如果此时也将当前使用的探头及探头的检查模式计入统计，会对统计数据形成噪音影响，不利于自动确定探头的准确性，所以，当探头采用的检查模式的时间达到第一预设时长后，再将其计入统计，可以更准确的反映实际的使用情况，有助于确定更合适的探头。
在一些实施例中，第一预设时长可以是1分钟。应了解，第一预设时长可以根据需要进行设置，在此不做限制。
可选地，在步骤S230中，根据动物信息和可用探头的历史使用数据从可用探头以及所支持的检查模式中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式包括：
根据动物信息确定候选目标探头；
从候选目标探头所支持的检查模式中，选择使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的检查模式作为目标检查模式，目标检查模式所对应的候选目标探头为目标探头，或
从候选目标探头的所支持的检查模式中，基于使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少两种的权重计算检查模式的得分，将得分最高的检查模式作为目标检查模式，目标检查模式所对应的候选目标探头为目标探头。
在一些实施例中，候选目标探头可以是一个或多个。
在一些实施例中，可以根据动物信息中的动物类型确定候选目标探头。其中，根据动物类型可以确定动物的体型，而对于不同的动物体型，通过不同的探头得到的图像效果不同，从而可以从可用探头中筛选出适合该动物的体型的探头作为候选目标探头。例如，微凸阵探头可能适合体型较小的动物，而不适合体型较大的动物，因此，当待测动物的动物类型是马等大体型动物时，可以排除微凸阵探头，而将其他可用探头作为对马进行检查的候选目标探头。进一步地，由于同一类型的动物进行检查的检查类型比较类似，比如有些检查类型是必做的检查类型，那么该检查类型的检查频率较高，进行该检查所采用的对应的检查模式的使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长也相应较高，此时可以从候选目标探头中，选择使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的检查模式作为目标检查模式，该目标检查模式对应的探头为目标探头。
在一些实施例中，可以根据动物信息中的检查类型确定候选目标探头。如前，每个可用探头可以支持一种或多种检查模式，所以，根据待测动物要检查的检查类型可以确定探头的检查模式，从而根据该检查模式可以筛选出支持该检查模式的可用探头作为候选目标探头。然后，从候选目标探头中，选择使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的检查模式及其对应的探头作为目标检查模式和目标探头。
在一些实施例中，还可以根据动物信息中的动物类型和检查类型确定候选目标探头。根据动物类型可以确定动物的体型以及根据检查类型可以确定探头的检查模式，从可用探头中筛选出适合该动物的体型以及支持该检查模式的探头作为候选目标探头；再从候选目标探头中，选择使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的检查模式及其对应的探头作为目标检查模式和目标探头。
在一些实施例中，不仅可以如上述实施例中仅依据使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的一种确定目标检查模式和目标探头，还可以将使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的多种结合进行判断。具体来说，可以设置使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长各自的权重，并根据使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长是否处于对应的预设范围进行打分，可以是多个等级的预设范围，如使用频率在第一预设范围则使用频率的的得分为S1，使用频 率在第二预设范围则使用频率的的得分为S2，依次类推；类似地，使用总次数或使用总时长也可以根据各自对应的不同等级的预设范围进行打分；然后将使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少两个的得分与各自的权重相乘并求和，得到检查模式的得分。将候选目标探头的所有检查模式的得分进行比较，选择得分最高的检查模式作为目标检查模式，目标检查模式所对应的候选目标探头为目标探头。
应了解，使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长各自对应的不同等级的预设范围及其对应的得分，以及使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长的权重均可以根据需要进行设置，在此不做限制。
可选地，在步骤S230中，根据动物信息和可用探头的历史使用数据从可用探头以及所支持的检查模式中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式包括：
根据动物信息确定目标检查模式；
从支持目标检查模式的可用探头中，选择使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的可用探头作为目标探头，或
从支持目标检查模式的可用探头中，基于使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少两种的权重计算可用探头的得分，将得分最高的可用探头作为目标探头。
其中，可以根据动物信息中的检查类型直接确定目标检查模式，然后从支持该目标检查模式的可用探头中，基于使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少一个因素确定目标探头，可以是使用频率最高、使用总次数最多或使用总时长最长的可用探头，也可以是综合考虑使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少两个所确定的可用探头。其中，基于使用频率、使用总次数或使用总时长中的至少两种的权重计算可用探头的得分，与上述实施例中的计算类似，在此不在赘述。
可选地，在步骤S230中，根据动物信息和可用探头的历史使用数据从可用探头以及所支持的检查模式中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式包括：
根据动物信息确定目标检查模式；
将可用探头的历史使用数据中出现过的支持目标检查模式的可用探头作为候选目标探头；
接收第一用户指令；
响应于第一用户指令从候选目标探头中确定目标探头。
其中，在通过动物信息确定目标检查模式后，可以结合可用探头的历史使用数据，将用户针对该目标检查模式所使用过的探头均作为候选目标探头。此时，人机交互装置可以通过显示装置向用户呈现候选目标探头的标识，供用户进行选择；用户通过输入装置选择他认为合适的探头的标识，则输入装置向处理器发送第一用户指令，处理器接收到该第一用户指令后，响应于该第一用户指令，将用户所选的标识对应的候选目标探头作为目标探头。这种方式，便于用户根据自己的需要进行选择，增加了超声检查的灵活性。
可选地，方法该包括：显示最近使用列表，最近使用列表包括按照使用时间排列的至少一个组合标识，其中，每个组合标识包括相应的探头标识，以及动物类型和检查模式标识。
其中，可以通过人机交互装置中的显示装置在操作界面中显示用户近期对哪些动物使用哪些探头及检查模式进行了超声检查，当处理器所确定的目标探头并不是用户想要的，用户可以在自己近期使用过的检查条件中快捷地实现探头的切换，可以进一步减少用户手动操作的步骤和时间，提高工作效率。
可选地，在步骤S230中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式后，可控制该目标探头采用该目标检查模式对该待测动物进行超声扫查，如控制该目标探头向该待测动物发射超声波，接收该超声波的回波，获得超声回波信号，通过对该超声回波信号进行处理，得到该待测动物的超声图像或者超声相关参数。
参见图6，图6示出了根据本申请实施例的包含最近使用列表的操作界面的示例。如图6所示，可以在操作界面的右侧边缘区域设置最近使用列表，最近使用列表中包括至少一个组合标识610，每个组合标识包括相应的探头标识611，以及动物类型和检查模式标识612。其中，探头标识611可以标识探头的型号，动物类型和检查模式标识612可以标识动物类型及探头所使用的检查模式。组合标识610可以按照时间顺序排成一列，例如，位于第一行的组合标识是离当前时间的时间间隔最短的所使用的探头及其检查模式，位于第二行的组合标识则比第一行的时间间隔要长，依次类推。如图6所示，第一行的组合标识可以表示上一次是基于型号为L13-3的探头采用小器官检查模式对狗(5-15kg)进行超声检查。
应了解，最近使用列表的位置可以根据需要进行设置，并不局限于图6中所示的位置。同时，最近使用列表中组合标识的排列方式也可以根据需要进行设置，在此不做限制。
在一些实施例中，方法还包括：
选择组合标识中的动物类型和检查模式标识，关联地显示支持所选的动物类型和检查模式的其他可用探头的探头标识，或
选择组合标识中的探头标识，关联地显示支持组合标识中对应于所选的探头标识的动物类型和检查模式的其他可用探头的探头标识；
其中，其他可用探头的探头标识用于在被选择时作为新的目标探头对待测动物进行检查。
具体来说，参见图6，操作界面中还可以包括可用探头的标识，其中，还可以对当前探头620突出显示(如高亮)，当用户不满意当前所确定或使用的探头时，可以在最近显示列表中，对组合标识进行操作。在一些实施例中，可以选择选择组合标识中的动物类型和检查模式标识，如第一行组合标识中“狗(5-15kg)小器官”，则可以将“狗(5-15kg)小器官”作为新的目标检查模式；操作界面中可以关联地显示支持所选的动物类型和检查模式“狗(5-15kg)小器官”的其他可用探头的探头标识630，如探头L12-3E和6C2，用户可以继续在其他可用探头的探头标识630中进行选择，根据用户所选的其他可用探头的探头标识，则可以将当前探头切换至用户所选的其他可用探头，作为新的目标探头对待测动物进行检查，即实现了用户对探头及其对应的检查模式的快速切换。在一些实施例中，还可以选择选择组合标识中的探头标识，如第一行组合标识中“L13-3”，则可以将第一行组合标识中“L13-3”所对应的“狗(5-15kg)小器官”作为新的目标检查模式，关联地显示支持该“狗(5-15kg)小器官”的其他可用探头的探头标识630，如探头L12-3E和6C2，用户可以继续在其他可用探头的探头标识630中进行选择，根据用户所选的其他可用探头的探头标识。
根据本申请实施例，还提供了一种兽用超声检查条件的确定方法。参见图7，图7示出了根据本申请实施例的兽用超声检查条件的确定方法的示意性流程图。如图7所示，方法700包括：
步骤S710，获取待测动物的动物信息，动物信息包括检查类型；
步骤S720，确定当前可用探头以及所支持的检查模式；
步骤S730，根据动物信息从可用探头以及所支持的检查模式中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式。
其中，根据动物信息中的检查类型可以确定探头的检查模式，则可以从支持该检查模式的可用探头中确定目标探头和目标检查模式。
应了解，步骤S710和步骤S720可以是同步进行；也可以是非同步进行，步骤S720也可以在步骤S710之间就已经完成，在此对步骤S710和步骤S720的顺序不做限制。此外，步骤S710和步骤S720可以分别与图2中所示的步骤S210和步骤S220的实现过程至少部分相同。
在一些实施例中，支持该检查模式的可用探头可以是一个或多个。如果支持该检查模式的可用探头是一个，则直接将该可用探头作为目标探头，该检查模式为目标检查模式。如果支持该检查模式的可用探头是多个，则可以由用户进行进一步选择。
可选地，在步骤S730中，根据动物信息从可用探头以及所支持的检查模式中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式包括：
根据检查类型确定目标检查模式；
将支持目标检查模式的可用探头作为候选目标探头；
接收第二用户指令；
响应于第二用户指令从候选目标探头中确定目标探头。
具体来说，处理器获取待测动物的动物信息中的检查类型，由此可以确定目标检查模式；根据探头与检查模式的预设映射关系，可以得到支持目标检查模式的可用探头，作为候选目标探头；人机交互装置可以通过显示装置向用户呈现候选目标探头的标识，供用户进行选择；用户通过输入装置选择他认为合适的探头的标识，则输入装置向处理器发送第二用户指令，处理器接收到该第二用户指令后，响应于该第二用户指令，将用户所选的标识对应的候选目标探头作为目标探头。如此，增加了超声检查的灵活性。
在一些实施例中，动物信息还包括动物类型，将支持目标检查模式的可用探头作为候选目标探头，进一步包括：
将支持目标检查模式的可用探头中，与动物类型匹配的可用探头作为候选目标探头。
其中，还可以在支持目标检查模式的可用探头中，根据动物类型对可用探头做进一步的筛选，从而得到既支持目标检查模式又与动物类型匹配的可用探头作为候选目标探头。此时，候选目标探头可以是一个或多个。如果候选目标探头是一个，则直接将该候选目标探头作为目标探头。如果候选目标探头是多个，则可以由用户进行进一步选择。
可选地，在步骤S730中确定用于对待测动物进行检查的目标探头和目标检查模式后，可控制该目标探头采用该目标检查模式对该待测动物进行超声扫查，如控制该目标探头向 该待测动物发射超声波，接收该超声波的回波，获得超声回波信号，通过对该超声回波信号进行处理，得到该待测动物的超声图像或者超声相关参数。
本申请实施例的兽用超声检查条件的确定方法及超声成像设备，通过结合超声成像设备的当前可用探头的信息和待测动物的动物信息，自动确定对待测动物进行检查的探头，能够减少用户的重复性劳动，可以快速获得合适的检查探头，提高了兽用超声检查的检查效率，保证了检查效果。
