PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a biological information processing apparatus which can efficiently execute biological information processing.SOLUTION: A biological information processing apparatus comprises: a first processing unit 10 which receives an ultrasonic wave generated by emitting an ultrasonic wave to a subject portion and creates first information related to an organism of the subject portion a second processing unit 20 which receives an acoustic wave generated by irradiating the subject portion with light and creates second information related to the organism of the subject portion and a determiner 30 which determines a generation region for which the second information is generated and a non-generation region for which no second information is generated of the received acoustic wave on the basis of the first information and makes the second processing unit perform processing in accordance with the determination result. The first processing unit, the second processing unit, and the determiner are integrally provided.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】効率的に生体情報処理を実施できる生体情報処理装置を提供する。【解決手段】被検部に超音波を発信して生じた超音波を受信して被検部の生体に関する第1情報を生成する第1処理部10と、被検部に光を照射して生じた音響波を受信して被検部の生体に関する第2情報を生成する第2処理部20と、第1情報に基づいて、受信した音響波のうち、第2情報を生成させる生成領域と、第2情報を生成させない非生成領域とを判定し、判定結果に応じた処理を第2処理部に行わせる判定器30とを備える。第1処理部、第2処理部及び判定器は、一体化されて設けられている。【選択図】図1
