PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an acoustic wave diagnosis device capable of readily acquiring and displaying accurate information pertaining to blood vessels and blood flow.SOLUTION: An acoustic wave diagnosis device provided with a function for displaying an acoustic wave image of a subject using a B-mode, and with a blood flow rate display function using a D-mode; includes a photoacoustic imaging means (constituted of a laser light source 23, an ultrasonic probe 10, a receiver circuit 13, and the like) for acquiring photoacoustic data illustrating a photoacoustic image of the subject. The acoustic wave diagnosis device further includes a means (for example, a D-mode signal generation unit 32) for determining, on the basis of photoacoustic data pertaining to a blood vessel portion obtained by the photoacoustic imaging means, a parameter for acquiring information pertaining to the blood flow rate in the D-mode. |
