Summary:To improve a luminance difference in an ultrasonic image.SOLUTION: An ultrasonic probe in an embodiment includes a first element group and a second element group. In the first element group, a plurality of first elements each having at least one center element and two edge elements in a first direction are arrayed in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. In the second element group, a plurality of second elements each having a length of 50% or more of the length of the center element, and less than the length of the first element are arrayed in the second direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】超音波画像における輝度差を改善すること。【解決手段】実施形態に係る超音波プローブは、第１の素子群と、第２の素子群とを備える。第１の素子群は、第１の方向に一つの中央素子および二つの端部素子を少なくとも有する第１の素子を、第１の方向に直交する第２の方向に複数配列する。第２の素子群は、中央素子の長さの５０％以上、第１の素子の長さ未満の長さである第２の素子を、第２の方向に複数配列する。【選択図】 図４
