    Abstract: An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes: a two-dimensional (2D) transducer array in which a plurality of transducers that transmit/receive an ultrasound signal to/from an object are arranged in two dimensions; an analog beamformer configured to perform analog beamforming in a first direction, and perform analog beamforming in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction on signals respectively received by the plurality of transducers; and a digital beamformer configured to perform digital beamforming on the signals that are analog-beamformed in the first direction, and perform digital beamforming on the signals that are analog-beamformed in the second direction.

    Abstract: Provided is a method of outputting a velocity of an object, the method including: transmitting an ultrasound signal to an object and receiving an ultrasound echo signal returned from the object; determining a velocity of the object based on the ultrasound echo signal; displaying a spectral Doppler image showing velocities of the object over time; receiving user inputs of selecting an interval within a range of the velocities of the object shown in the spectral Doppler image and adjusting an output volume of an audible sound corresponding to velocities in the selected interval; and outputting, based on the adjusted output volume of the audible sound, an audible sound representing the velocities of the object over time.
