A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ULTRASONIC IMAGING.

Abstract TITLE: A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ULTRASONIC IMAGING. The invention relates to a method of ultrasonic imaging comprising the steps of: transmitting an ultrasonic wave of a particular strength sufficient to disperse a contrast agent for only a part of and less than the total number of a first set of sonic beams forming a first frame. Transmitting a plurality of ultrasonic waves of a strength which does not disperse the contrast agent for all of the total number of a second set of sonic beams forming a second frame. Producing an image for a third frame from received signals, which correspond to, said ultrasonic waves. (FIG. - 3)
