    Abstract: There are provided an ultrasonic imaging apparatus for imaging an ultrasonic signal and a method of controlling the same. A method of controlling an ultrasonic imaging apparatus according to an embodiment which uses a 2D array probe in which a plurality of elements are two-dimensionally arranged, the method includes setting an ultrasound to be transmitted using all of the plurality of elements and an echo ultrasound to be received using some predetermined elements among the plurality of elements, determining whether a section of interest of an object is included in a weak resolution region determined by the setting, and generating an ultrasound image of the section of interest according to a beamforming method corresponding to focusing of the transmitted ultrasound by transmitting the ultrasound and receiving the echo ultrasound in accordance with the setting when the section of interest is included in the weak resolution region.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are an ultrasonic imaging apparatus and an image display method thereof. The ultrasonic imaging apparatus includes an ultrasonic probe configured to transmit ultrasonic signals toward an object and to receive ultrasonic signals reflected by the object, a beamformer configured to perform beamforming based on the ultrasonic signals received by the ultrasonic probe, and an image processor configured to generate an ultrasonic image of an examined region within the object based on the beamforming, to extract characteristic information which relates to the examined region from the generated ultrasonic image, and to judge whether or not the examined region coincides with a target region based on the extracted characteristic information, thus facilitating a determination as to with which region within the object the examined region corresponds based on various pieces of the characteristic information of the examined region extracted via analysis of the ultrasonic image.
