PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a movement operation of an ultrasonic probe by an operator at the time of ultrasonic diagnosis to be referred or evaluated afterward. ! SOLUTION: A position information calculation part 20 sequentially outputs position information indicating the position and posture of a probe 10 on the basis of output signals from an acceleration sensor 12 and a gyro sensor 14 provided in the probe 10. A position display image formation part 34 forms a plurality of position display images (display images consisting of a probe mark and a scanning surface mark) on the basis of the plurality of pieces of position information, and the position display images are displayed so as to be overlapped on a body mark being a background image. In this case, the plurality of position display images are displayed in a static display mode or kinetic display mode in which temporal change of the position of the probe 10 can be recognized. With this configuration, real time display and reproduction display of |
