Patent attributes
An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes a setting unit, a transmitter, a signal processing unit, and an image generating unit. The setting unit sets a plurality of ROIs within a scanning region. The transmitter transmits an ultrasonic wave for displacement generation on a plurality of transmission conditions corresponding to the respective ROIs from an ultrasonic probe and transmits an ultrasonic wave for observation that observes a displacement generated by each transmission of the ultrasonic wave for displacement generation, from the ultrasonic probe a plurality of times. The signal processing unit analyzes a plurality of pieces of reflected wave data, acquires a plurality of pieces of displacement information, and calculates distribution information on the respective transmission conditions. The image generating unit generates a plurality of pieces of image data based on the pieces of distribution information and composite image data by composing the pieces of image data.
