发明名称 Object information acquiring apparatus and control method for the object information acquiring apparatus
摘要 An object information acquiring apparatus comprises a receiver receiving an acoustic wave propagating inside an object and convert the acoustic wave into an electric signal; a scanning unit configured to causing the receiver to scan the object; a control unit configured to controlling operation of the scanning unit; a detection unit configured to detecting a status of the acoustic wave reception; and a processing unit for acquiring characteristic information on the inside of the object on the basis of the electric signal, wherein the control unit decides whether or not the operation of the scanning unit is changed, on the basis of a result of detection by the detection unit.

主权项 1. An object information acquiring apparatus comprising: a receiver that receives an acoustic wave propagating inside an object and convert the acoustic wave into an electric signal; a scanning unit that causes the receiver to move relative to the object and scan the object; a control unit that controls an operation of the scanning unit; a detection unit that detects an error in an acoustic wave reception; and a processing unit that acquires characteristic information on the inside of the object on the basis of the electric signal, wherein the control unit decides, on the basis of the detection of the error by the detection unit, whether or not to change the operation of the scanning unit.
