Abstract

An acoustic wave probe () includes a reception circuit () that generates a sound ray signal from a reception signal of a transducer array (); a Doppler processing unit () that performs Doppler processing on the sound ray signal to generate Doppler data; a Doppler image generation unit () that generates a Doppler image; a compression processing unit () that compresses the Doppler image; a wireless communication circuit () that wirelessly transmits the compressed Doppler image to the information terminal; and a processing frequency setting unit () that sets a processing frequency F2 of the compression processing such that the processing frequency F2 becomes a frequency higher than twice a processing frequency F1 of the Doppler processing, and at least the reception circuit (), the Doppler processing unit (), the Doppler image generation unit (), and the compression processing unit () are disposed on the same substrate ().
