Disclosed is an apparatus that comprises a photo-acoustic transceiver which outputs, through a laser generator, a laser pulse output toward an object to be examined, and receives, through an ultrasonic wave receiver, an ultrasonic wave image signal from the object to be examined; an analog-to-digital converter which receives the ultrasonic wave image signal and converts same into a digital image signal; a main control unit which receives the digital image signal to generate ultrasonic wave scanning three-dimensional image information about the object to be examined; and a trigger control unit which receives motion information of a photo-acoustic probe to generate a scanning trigger signal corresponding to the motion information, receives laser pulse output information to generate a laser trigger signal corresponding to the laser pulse output, and generates an output trigger signal corresponding to the laser trigger signal and outputs same to the analog-to-digital converter.
