摘要
An ultrasonic signal focusing method and apparatus is provided, in which an ultrasonic signal reflected from an object is focused at all points from and to which transmission and reception are performed on a scan line. The ultrasonic signal focusing method includes an ultrasonic signal transmission step for moving, focusing and transmission-scanning the transmission scan line in turn, using an array transducer, an ultrasonic signal reception step for receiving all the ultrasonic signals transmitted along the scan lines at the transducer elements which are placed in the location at which reception is enabled, an ultrasonic storing step for storing all the received ultrasonic signals by each scan line, and an ultrasonic focusing step for interpolating an arrival delay amount of the ultrasonic signals stored after arrival at a different point in time and summing the interpolated signal. Thus, all the signals obtained by performing transmission focusing on a number of adjacent scan lines are used to thereby perform reception focusing, to thereby provide the same effect as the case where focal points exists in all the points on the scan line.
