Provided is an ultrasound imaging apparatus comprising: an image processing unit for connecting relevant blood flows and classifying the same into a plurality of blood flow trees on the basis of information on blood flow direction and blood flow velocity obtained from morphological information of a target object and three-dimensional blood flow data; a user input unit for receiving a user input which selects a blood flow tree, in which a target blood flow is included, from among the plurality of blood flow trees; and a display unit for displaying the selected blood flow tree on a three-dimensional rendering image on the basis of the user input.

Method and apparatus for displaying ultrasound image of target object

Provided is an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus including: an image processor configured to generate, as an amount of a contrast agent introduced into a target tissue of an object changes, a plurality of ultrasound images showing different sizes of regions in a target tissue region representing a tissue into which the contrast agent has been introduced; a display configured to display a first ultrasound image from among the plurality of ultrasound images; a user input unit configured to receive a user input for setting a region of interest (ROI) in the displayed first ultrasound image; and a controller configured to determine, based on the set ROI, the regions in the plurality of ultrasound images representing the tissue into which the contrast agent has been introduced and determine the region of the target tissue based on the determined regions.

Ultrasound apparatus and method of obtaining information from contrast image

Provided are an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus and method for analyzing a contrast enhanced ultrasound image. The ultrasound diagnosis apparatus and method determine, by analysis, causes of defects in a frame of an ultrasound image based on a time intensity curve and allow visual display of the defective frame based on the determined causes. Furthermore, the ultrasound diagnosis method and apparatus may provide a user interface for quick access to causes of defects in a frame of the ultrasound image and to a position of the defective frame.
