An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes image processing circuitry. The image processing circuitry acquires, based on a result of ultrasound scanning performed on a subject, blood flow information including a value that indicates a blood flow at each position within the subject and tissue property information including a value that indicates tissue properties at each position within the subject. The image processing circuitry generates a first image in which a difference in value in the blood flow information is represented by at least a difference in hue and a second image in which a difference in value in the tissue property information is represented by a difference other than the difference in hue. The image processing circuitry generates a combined image by combining the first image and the second image.

Ultrasound diagnostic apparatus

According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry calculates, based on a region of interest set in a mammographic image, a first distance from the region of interest to a body surface on the mammographic image, and displays, in an ultrasound image, a marker indicating a position of the region of interest as viewed in a depth direction based on the first distance.

Image processing apparatus, ultrasound diagnostic apparatus, and image processing method

The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to the present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to: acquire multiple position data associated with respective multiple two-dimensional image data of ultrasonic related to multiple cross sections; smooth the acquired multiple position data; and arrange the multiple two-dimensional image data in accordance with the smoothed multiple position data to generate volume data.

An information processing system comprises a plurality of systems (1, 3, 4, 6) communicating through a transmission path (2) and performing a processing base on their own function. One of the plurality of systems acts as as an supervising system having a supervising function. The supervising system (1, 4) sets a goal for each of the plurality of systems, collects the processing result on each system and evaluates the processing result; and on the basis of the processing result, the supervising system sets a new goal for each system considering a goal of the entire system comprising said plurality of systems.

Power distribution control system

A direct current detecting device is disclosed in which two pairs of saturable cores are provided so as to enclose a conductor carrying a direct current to be measured. On each of the saturable cores, a bias winding, a feedback winding and an output winding are wound. First and second output circuits are provided, each connected with a pair of output windings and each including two closed current paths consisting of the output winding, a common load, a common A.C. supply source and a diode. The diodes function to allow the greater one of current flows of the two closed paths to be passed through the common load. An amplifier is connected to receive the difference between output signals of the two output circuits. The output of the amplifier is supplied to the feedback winding whereby the magnitude of the feedback current becomes a function of the magnitude of the current flowing through the conductor.
