PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To store accumulated degradation information relating to a probe for the each probe. SOLUTION: The degradation information relating to the probe 10 is stored in a memory 14. For the date of starting use, the date of starting the use of the probe 10 is stored. For a total transmission / reception time, the cumulative time of the transmission / reception time of ultrasonic waves 18 by the probe 10 after starting the use is stored, and the total transmission / reception time is appropriately updated by a device body. For a probe serial No., an intrinsic number allocated to the probe 10 is stored, and from the probe serial No., the probe 10 can be specified. Also, for a probe type, the kind (such as linear and sector) of the probe 10 is stored. In addition, in the memory 14, the information on a probe frequency or the like can be stored.
