摘要： In one embodiment, an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes an image creating unit, an image-creation control unit and a display control unit. The image creating unit creates an ultrasound image from data created by adding a reflected wave signal of an ultrasound wave transmitted to an imaging target portion of a subject by using a reception delay time calculated from a set sound velocity set as a sound velocity in the imaging target portion. The image-creation control unit switches a set sound velocity set at a present moment in a variable range, and controls the image creating unit so as to create a plurality of ultrasound images each using a reception delay time corresponding to each of the set sound velocities to be switched. The display control unit controls display such that the ultrasound images created are displayed on a certain display unit.

摘要： A display controller causes a display to display a 3-dimensional B-mode image and a 3-dimensional colored Doppler image in a superimposed state. A marker generator generates three planar markers that are orthogonal to each other, and the display controller causes the display to display the three planar markers so as to be superimposed on the 3-dimensional B-mode image and so on. An image generator generates 3-dimensional B-mode image data of a region other than a region existing on a viewpoint side of regions sectioned by the three planar markers. Further, the image generator generates 3-dimensional colored Doppler image data for the region on the viewpoint side. For the region existing on the viewpoint side, only a 3-dimensional colored Doppler image is displayed on the display. An intersection of the three planar markers is set as a sample marker, and Doppler data of the intersection is acquired.

摘要： A Doppler sensitivity measuring unit measures the Doppler sensitivity of Doppler spectrum data obtained by ultrasonic wave transmission/reception with respect to a predetermined region of an object to be examined. A spectrum shape model generating unit generates a spectrum shape model on the basis of a window function used when the above Doppler spectrum data is generated. A threshold setting unit sets a threshold range in which trace waveform data displaces by a predetermined amount in the frequency axis direction on the basis of the spectrum shape model and the Doppler sensitivity, and sets a predetermined number of thresholds at almost equal intervals in the threshold range. A trace data generating unit selects a threshold for the acquisition of desired trace waveform data by generating trace waveform data while sequentially updating the plurality of set thresholds.
