Abstract

The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to the present embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a scan region of an ultrasonic wave according to a scan target. The processing circuitry is configured to set a pulse repetition frequency for each raster of rasters so as to correspond to the scan region. The processing circuitry is configured to control a scan performance according to the pulse repetition frequency.
