ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME

An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus of the disclosure includes a probe; an ultrasound transceiver configured to transmit an ultrasound signal to an object through the probe and receive an echo signal reflected from the object; a controller configured to obtain first data by controlling the ultrasound transceiver to transmit a first ultrasound pulse to the object and receive the echo signal reflected from the object, to obtain second data by controlling the ultrasound transceiver to repeat an operation of transmitting a second ultrasound pulse different from the first ultrasound pulse to a first position of the object and receiving the echo signal reflected from the first position of the object a plurality of times at predetermined time intervals, to obtain third data by controlling the ultrasound transceiver to repeat an operation of transmitting the second ultrasound pulse to a second position of the object and receiving the echo signal reflected from the second position of the object the plurality of times at predetermined time intervals, and to detect the micro-calcification tissues of the first position and the second position by analyzing the obtained second and third data; and a display configured to display an ultrasound image generated based on the obtained first data and an image representing micro-calcification tissues detected in the first position and the second position.
