Abstract
According to one embodiment, an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires first echo data in a first mode, and acquires second echo data in a second mode. The processing circuitry sequentially generates a first image including a B-mode image based on the first echo data in the first mode, and sequentially generates a second image not including a B-mode image based on the second echo data in the second mode. The processing circuitry sequentially generates a third image from pre-acquired volume data. The processing circuitry directs a display to sequentially display the first image and the third image in the first mode, and to sequentially display the second image and the third image in the second mode.
