Abstract
An ultrasonic device includes: a plurality of oscillation elements to generate ultrasonic waves toward a subject, and generate voltages according to ultrasonic waves reflected by the subject; a data generator to generate a predetermined number of sets of time-series data, each of the sets indicating change in time in a plurality of voltages generated by a predetermined number of oscillation elements, among the voltages generated by the plurality of oscillation elements; a data accumulator to accumulate the sets of time-series data generated by the data generator; a selector to select time-series data from among those generated by the data generator or those accumulated in the data accumulator; a data processor to generate image data by processing a predetermined number of sets of the selected time-series data; and a controller to cause the data generator to stop generating time-series data while the selector selects the accumulated time-series data.
