First Claim
Patent Images
1. An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus comprising:
- an image processor configured to detect a mid-sagittal plane (MSP) from volume data for a head of an object, generate an MSP image corresponding to the MSP, determine a measurement plane among a first plurality of candidate planes that are perpendicular to the MSP, and generate a measurement plane image corresponding to the measurement plane; and
a display configured to display the MSP image and the measurement plane image on a single screen,wherein the image processor is further configured to determine the measurement plane, among the first plurality of candidate planes, as a transthalamic plane (TTP), based on a brightness value of a first predetermined region of each of the first plurality of candidate planes, respectively.
