OPERATION SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR ULTRASOUND PROBE AND OPERATION SUPPORT PROGRAM FOR ULTRASOUND PROBE

Abstract

A probe detection mark is attached to an ultrasound probe, and a target detection mark is attached to a treatment target. A pre-treatment relative relationship calculation unit calculates a pre-treatment relative relationship between the ultrasound probe and the treatment target at a pre-treatment ultrasound transmission and reception time, based on a pre-treatment camera image including an image of the probe detection mark and an image of the target detection mark, which are formed before a treatment on the treatment target. A current relative relationship calculation unit calculates a current relative relationship between the ultrasound probe and the treatment target based on a current camera image including an image of the probe detection mark and an image of the target detection mark, which are formed at a current time. A probe control support unit executes control of bringing the current relative relationship closer to the pre-treatment relative relationship.
