Ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, learning apparatus, and image processing method

Abstract

An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, comprising: an ultrasonic probe which scans an observation region in an object with an ultrasonic wave; and an estimated image generating unit which, by using a model having been machine-learned using learning data including first data based on a first received signal that is obtained by first transmission/reception of an ultrasonic wave and second data based on a second received signal that is obtained by second transmission/reception that represents a larger number of transmissions/receptions than the first transmission/reception of the ultrasonic wave, generates an estimated image equivalent to image data obtained by the second transmission/reception from third data based on a third received signal that is obtained by transmission/reception equivalent to the first transmission/reception of the ultrasonic wave by the ultrasonic probe.
