Abstract:
An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry configured to execute transmit aperture synthesis to conduct coherent summation on multiple received signals that are at different transmit apertures and in an identical scan line, evaluate a degree of consistency between phases of the received signals to calculate an evaluation value at each observation point, and correct a received signal having undergone the transmit aperture synthesis based on the evaluation value.
