Abstract

The apparatus comprises an ultrasonic transducer for the purpose of scanning an examination subject, and an image display device for representation of the ultrasonic information signals in the form of a display image. In accordance with the illustrative disclosure, an arrangement of electric frequency filters is associated with the ultrasonic transducer, said frequency filters manifesting a frequency response which is essentially the inverse of the frequency response being imposed on the ultrasonic impulses by the attenuating examination subject in the ultrasonic-transmit path. The imaging apparatus finds application particularly in medical ultrasonic diagnosis.
