Abstract
An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus comprises a local audio data input interface (901), a local video data input interface (902), a network interface (10), a remote audio data output interface (801) and a remote video data output interface (802). The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus can realize communication interaction with a remote terminal to carry out remote auxiliary diagnosis or remote consultation without additional other equipment, so that the convenience of remote diagnosis can be improved.
Description
The invention relates to an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus and a method for acquiring remote auxiliary data by using the same.
In the field of medical ultrasonic imaging, medical ultrasonic diagnostic apparatuses have high requirements on experience and skill of users. From the process of scanning an object to be scanned by using an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus to the interpretation and diagnosis of the obtained ultrasonic image, an operator or a doctor usually needs to have more skills and experiences to obtain a good ultrasonic image meeting the diagnosis requirement and obtain a more accurate diagnosis result. Therefore, diagnosis using an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus is a difficult task for a physician who has not undergone perfect training and has no good skill and experience in using the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus.
Moreover, even physicians with very extensive skill and experience cannot guarantee an accurate diagnosis of all the conditions encountered, since the conditions of the patients vary widely.
With the development of network communication technology, remote diagnosis technology is applied in the field of medical ultrasonic imaging. Through modern communication networks, different experts located in different regions, cities and even countries can remotely scan and diagnose a case together to obtain more accurate diagnosis results.
However, in the field of medical ultrasound imaging, remote diagnosis is currently performed by a local server in which a patient is located. That is, after the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus scans and obtains the ultrasonic image, the ultrasonic image is uploaded to the local server, and the local doctor performs information communication and interaction with the remote terminal through the local server, but the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus itself does not have the function of performing remote diagnosis.
