A method and apparatus for performing three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound volume scanning by using a two-dimensional (2D) transducer array, in which a plurality of transducer elements are two-dimensionally arranged, including applying at least two codes which are orthogonal to each other to at least one one-dimensional (1D) transducer array which is included in the 2D transducer array, the 1D transducer array having transducer elements which are arranged linearly from among the plurality of the transducer elements; obtaining signals which respectively correspond to the codes which are orthogonal to each other from signals which are reflected by a target object and received by the plurality of transducer elements; and generating image data regarding the target object by using the obtained signals.
