METHOD OF CONTROLLING ULTRASONIC PROBE AND ULTRASONIC DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS

A method and apparatus for forming a desired ultrasonic beam even when an acoustic line is directed obliquely with respect to an axis of symmetry of a transducer in-aperture array, when an acoustic line is directed obliquely to one side with respect to an axis of symmetry of a transducer in-aperture...

Summary:A method and apparatus for forming a desired ultrasonic beam even when an acoustic line is directed obliquely with respect to an axis of symmetry of a transducer in-aperture array, when an acoustic line is directed obliquely to one side with respect to an axis of symmetry of a transducer in-aperture array, a weight assigned to the transducers is set to be asymmetric with respect to the axis of symmetry.
