Disclosed herein is an ultrasonic imaging apparatus including: an ultrasonic probe configured to receive ultrasonic waves reflected from an object, and to convert the ultrasonic waves into electrical signals; a beamformer configured to perform beamforming on the electrical signals to thereby generate resultant signals, and to output the resultant signals; an image restorer configured to estimate a first Point Spread Function (PSF) based on an ultrasound image corresponding to the outputted signals, to determine a situational variable of the ultrasound image using the first PSF, to estimate a second PSF based on the situational variable of the ultrasound image, and to generate a restored image for the ultrasound image using the second PSF; and an image filter configured to filter the restored image based on the situational variable of the ultrasound image, and to output the filtered image.
