Abstract
An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes an ultrasound probe including a transducer array and a diagnostic apparatus main body including a monitor that are wirelessly connected; and a color flow mode, the ultrasound probe includes a transmission and reception circuit that causes the transducer array to transmit an ultrasonic pulse toward a subject, and performs reception focusing processing on a reception signal output from the transducer array that has received an ultrasound echo from the subject to generate a sound ray signal, a flow image information generation unit that generates flow image information consisting of velocity data and at least one of dispersion data or power data on the basis of the sound ray signal, and a probe-side wireless communication circuit that wirelessly transmits the flow image information, and the diagnostic apparatus main body includes a main body-side wireless communication circuit that receives the flow image information wirelessly transmitted from the probe-side wireless communication circuit of the ultrasound probe, a color flow image generation unit that generates a color flow image on the basis of the flow image information, and a display control unit that displays the color flow image, on the monitor.
