Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ultrasonic measurement apparatus capable of improving operability and convenience of a user by notifying the user of a proper measurement state with sound, and to provide a control method for the ultrasonic measurement apparatus.SOLUTION: An ultrasonic measurement apparatus includes: an ultrasonic transducer device 20 transmitting an ultrasonic beam while performing scanning along a scanning plane, and receiving an ultrasonic echo by the ultrasonic beam; a processing part 120 performing processing on the basis of a reception signal from the ultrasonic transducer device 20; and a sound output part 130 outputting sound. The sound output part 130 outputs the sound in which at least one of sound volume, an output interval of the sound, a frequency of the sound, and a sound pattern varies according to a direction of the scanning plane of the ultrasonic transducer device 20 with respect to a measurement part surface. 【課題】 適正な測定状態を音でユーザーに報知して、ユーザーの操作性や利便性を向上できる超音波測定装置及び超音波測定装置の制御方法の提供。【解決手段】 超音波測定装置は、走査面に沿ってスキャンしながら超音波ビームを送信すると共に、超音波ビームによる超音波エコーを受信する超音波トランスデューサーデバイス20と、超音波トランスデューサーデバイス20からの受信信号に基づいて処理を行う処理部120と、音を出力する音出力部130と、を含む。そして、音出力部130は、測定箇所表面に対する超音波トランスデューサーデバイス20の走査面の方向に応じて、音量、音の出力間隔、音の周波数及び音パターンのうちの少なくとも一つが変化する音を出力する。【選択図】 図1
