Abstract:
An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes an ultrasound probe including a plurality of transducers arranged in a plurality columns and a switching element which switches input of a driving signal to the transducers and output of a receiving signal, a transmitter which outputs the driving signal to the transducers, a receiver which acquires the receiving signal corresponding to the transducers, and a hardware processor which generates ultrasound image data corresponding to each of the columns from the receiving signal, makes partial images in the ultrasound image data respectively have representations, synthesizes the ultrasound image data respectively including the partial images to generate composite image data, generates first identification information indicating to which position in a depth direction of the composite image data each of the representations of the partial images in the composite image data corresponds, and displays the generated first identification information and composite image data on a display.
