Abstract:
An ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus according to the present invention being provided with: an ultrasonic probe (102) provided with a group of ultrasonic transducers for diagnosis use and a group of ultrasonic transducers for therapeutic use of which at least apart of ultrasonic beam irradiation surfaces are arranged so as to overlap each other, a tomographic image producing means (8) that produces a tomographic image containing a diseased portion of a subject from reflection echoes received by the group of ultrasonic transducers for diagnosis use, a display means (10) that displays the tomographic image containing the diseased portion of the subject produced by the tomographic image producing means (8), a setting means (103) that sets an irradiation path of the therapeutic ultrasonic waves on the tomographic image containing the diseased portion of the subject displayed by the display means (10) and a control means (104) that produces irradiation path information corresponding to the irradiation path of the therapeutic ultrasonic waves set by the setting means (103) and causes to display the produced irradiation path information on the display means (10) while correlating with the tomographic image containing the diseased portion of the subject.
