The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes an ultrasonic transducer array in which ultrasonic transducer elements are two-dimensionally arranged; and a controller configured to control the ultrasonic transducer elements to transmit ultrasonic signals and control the ultrasonic transducer elements arranged in rows of the ultrasonic transducer array to sequentially receive ultrasonic echo signals.

Ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus and control method thereof

Disclosed herein is an ultrasonic probe configured to release heat generated by a transducer to an exterior of the ultrasonic probe via a heat pipe and a radiator. The ultrasonic probe includes a housing; a transducer configured to generate ultrasonic waves while disposed in an interior of the housing; a heat pipe configured to transfer the heat generated by the transducer; a radiator connected to the heat pipe and configured to release the heat, which is transferred via the heat pipe, to the exterior of the housing; and a partition wall configured to separate an inside space within the housing.

Ultrasonic probe

Disclosed herein are an ultrasonic apparatus for imaging an ultrasonic signal and a control method for the same. The ultrasonic apparatus may include a transducer configured to irradiate a plurality of ultrasonic waves which have different traveling directions onto an object and to collect a plurality of echo ultrasonic waves reflected from the object; and a controller configured to acquire a plurality of sound velocities of the plurality of ultrasonic waves in the object and to compound the acquired plurality of sound velocities in order to determine a composite sound velocity in the object.
