Summary:To obtain a high-quality image.SOLUTION: An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus includes a transmitting and receiving part and a synthesizing part. The transmitting and receiving part continuously transmits a first transmission beam group and a second transmission beam group via an ultrasonic probe including a plurality of transducers provided along the azimuth direction and the elevation direction, and receives at least one receive beam for each transmission beam. The synthesizing part synthesizes a first reception beam on the basis of a first transmission beam included in the first transmission beam group and a second reception beam on the basis of a second transmission beam included in the second transmission beam group. Transmission beams adjacent in the azimuth direction or the elevation direction belong to different transmission beam groups.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】 高品質な画像を得ること。【解決手段】 超音波診断装置は、送受信部及び合成部を備える。送受信部は、アジマス方向とエレベーション方向に沿って設けられた複数の振動子を含む超音波プローブを介して、第１の送信ビーム群及び第２の送信ビーム群を連続して送信し、送信ビーム毎に少なくとも１つの受信ビームを受信する。合成部は、前記第１の送信ビーム群に含まれる第１送信ビームに基づく第１受信ビーム、及び前記第２送信ビーム群に含まれる第２送信ビームに基づく第２受信ビームを合成する。前記アジマス方向又は前記エレベーション方向に隣り合う送信ビームは、異なる送信ビーム群に属する。【選択図】図１
