- FIG. 4 shows the relationship between the user's viewpoint and volume data.
- the 3D ultrasound image as shown in FIG. 3 viewed by the user is a result of projecting the volume data 4000 onto a 2D plane using, for example, the ray casting method. If this two-dimensional plane is the xy plane, the user's line of sight is in the z-axis direction.
- the three-dimensional coordinates (x0, y0, z0) selected by the user can be considered to exist in the voxel string in the z-axis direction at the two-dimensional coordinates (x0, y0).

- the voxel string in the z-axis direction at (x0, y0) is searched from the user viewpoint side, and the start of the fetal region may be set as the start point (x0, y0, z0). Since the fetus generally reflects ultrasound strongly and is acquired as a high-luminance region, the start point coordinates 4001 (x0, y0, z0) are the coordinates of the first voxel that has a luminance exceeding the first specific threshold. .
- This specific threshold value may be a fixed value or a variable value depending on the volume data.
- the region contraction unit 2002 of the image extraction unit 1009 contracts the boundary of each region included in the volume data.

In such a case, a black non-luminous area is generated between the two areas by the contraction process, and the two high-luminance areas are clearly separated.
- B in the lower part of FIG. 5 is an example of the case where the fetus 3001 and the mother body 3002 are separated by applying such processing to the region contraction part 2002 in the two-dimensional plane of (a) in the upper part of FIG.

- FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure performed by the region recognition unit 2003.
- Step 6001 is a process for extracting voxels adjacent to the recognition area. At the start of this method, only the start point is included in the recognition area, and 26 neighborhoods that are adjacent to each other by one voxel in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions are extracted.
- FIG. 7 is an example of a region recognition result on a specific two-dimensional plane in the volume data. A voxel with a numerical value is a recognition area, and a voxel with a circle 0 indicates a starting point.
- Step 6002 is a process for selecting one adjacent voxel extracted in Step 6001.
- Step 6003 is processing for determining whether or not the luminance value of the adjacent voxel selected in Step 6002 is within a predetermined luminance value range. If it is within the range, the process proceeds to step 6004. If it is out of the range, the process proceeds to step 6005.
- Step 6004 is a process of connecting adjacent voxels selected as being within the range in Step 6002 to form a new recognition area.
- Step 6005 is a process for determining whether or not the processing from Step 6002 to Step 6004 has been completed for all adjacent voxels extracted in Step 6001. If not completed, the processing returns to step 6002 and the processing from step 6002 to step 6004 is performed on the remaining adjacent voxels. If completed, go to Step 6006.
- FIG. 7B shows the state of the recognition area when the process proceeds to step 6006 for the first time after the start of this process.
- a voxel having a circle 1 is a voxel connected as a recognition area in the first round of processing from step 6002 to step 6004.
- Step 6006 determines whether or not the current recognition area has been updated in comparison with the recognition area in the previous step 6001. For example, (b) in FIG. 7 is determined to have been updated (Yes) because a voxel having a circle 1 is newly connected as compared with (a). If updated, the process returns to step 6001 to extract adjacent voxels for the current recognition area. If not updated (No), the processing in the area recognition unit 2003 is terminated. In the example shown in FIG. 7, voxels with circles 2, 3, and 4 are connected in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th rounds, as shown in (c), (d), and (e) of the figure. Then, the black poxels in the adjacent poxels are not connected as out of range, and the state shown in (f) is obtained at the end of the process.

- the mask generation unit 2004 repeats this expansion process a predetermined number of times to generate three-dimensional mask data in which the extraction target region is expanded by a predetermined width.
- the width and thickness for expanding the extraction target region are determined according to a predetermined fixed thickness or a contracted thickness of the region, that is, a thickness contracted at each position of the fetal surface at the region contraction part, and a fetal body surface thickness.
- the thickness may be variable.
- a high luminance region is generally a bone portion, and a skin portion having a relatively low luminance is present outside the bone portion.

- the optimal expansion width can be arbitrarily set.
- the mask superimposing unit 2005 of the image extracting unit 1009 extracts the specific area from the volume data by applying the 3D mask data generated by the mask generating unit 2004 to the volume data that is the original 3D acquired image. Specifically, output volume data is obtained by multiplying the luminance value of each voxel of the volume data by the value of each voxel of the three-dimensional mask data at the corresponding coordinates.

Similar to the region recognition unit 2003 of the first embodiment, when a voxel adjacent to the start point has a predetermined luminance value, it is determined that they belong to the same region and are connected to sequentially expand the region. However, when removing suspended solids, it is desirable not to overrecognize the region and remove it too much. In general, floating substances have a relatively low luminance, and it is necessary to set the luminance value range wide on the low luminance side in order to reliably remove the suspended matter.
