1. An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus comprising:
- a transmitting and receiving unit configured to transmit an ultrasound pulse to a subject and to receive an echo signal from the subject;
a detecting unit configured to detect thrombi that are present in blood of the subject from the echo signal and to generate numerical value information that quantifies a thrombus detection result; and
a chart display unit configured to display a chart indicating the thrombus detection result on a display unit, on a basis of the numerical value information.

Abstract
An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus according to an embodiment includes a transmitting and receiving unit, a detecting unit, and a chart display unit. The transmitting and receiving unit transmits an ultrasound pulse to a subject and receives an echo signal from the subject. The detecting unit detects thrombi that are present in the blood of the subject from the echo signal and generates numerical value information that quantifies a thrombus detection result. The chart display unit displays a chart indicating the thrombus detection result on a display unit, on the basis of the numerical value information.
