Abstract
An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes a probe configured to transmit ultrasonic waves to a living body and receive ultrasonic waves reflected by the living body; and a processor configured to, in a moving image mode, cause ultrasonic image data based on ultrasonic waves received by a first subset of the total number of oscillators that the probe has to be output, and, in a static image mode, cause ultrasonic image data based on ultrasonic waves received by a second subset of the total number of oscillators that the probe has to be output, wherein the number of oscillators used in the second subset is greater than the number of oscillators used in the first subset.
