摘要:
An ultrasonic imaging apparatus comprises a volume data generating unit for generating volume data by processing echo signals obtained through ultrasonic transmission and reception to and from a three dimensional region including at least a portion of a body part. The ultrasonic imaging apparatus further comprises a rendering unit configured to generate a rendering image by performing a volume rendering process or a surface rendering process for the volume data based on a plurality of parameters, a display control unit for displaying image on a display unit, and a parameter adjustment unit for performing a detection of the at least a portion of the body part in the rendering image, and selecting or adjusting the value of at least one of the parameters based on a result of the detection, wherein said rendering unit is configured to generate a new rendering image based on the selected or adjusted parameter values from said parameter adjustment unit, and wherein said display control unit is configured to display said new rendering image on said display unit.
