Ultrasonic inspection apparatus, ultrasonic probe apparatus used for ultrasonic inspection apparatus, and ultrasonic inspection method

摘要

An ultrasonic inspection apparatus includes: an ultrasonic probe apparatus including an ultrasonic transducer; a drive element selecting section that selects a required piezoelectric vibrator of the ultrasonic transducer; a signal detecting circuit that detects an electric signal dependent on a reflected echo of an ultrasonic wave emitted from the selected piezoelectric vibrator; a signal processing section that produces data on an internal image of the inspection object based on the detected reflected echo; a second display unit that combines multiple pieces of image data acquired from the signal processing section and displays an integrated visualization data resu and an second input unit that is used to perform an operation command such as a command input to start or terminate an inspection or an a command to set inspection condition.
