The invention relates to an ultrasonic imaging apparatus using a method for combining CMB images of the same object including a step of seeking representative contours CNT of an interface on the images to be combined IM[I], IM[J], said step being intended to define interest areas IA[I], IA[J] in the vicinity of said representative contours, a step ANA of analyzing the interest areas IA[I], IA[J], said analysis step ANA being intended to allocate weights W[I], W[J] to the points on said interest areas IA[I], A[J] and to the points corresponding to said interest areas IA[I], IA[J] on the various images, a step CC of constructing a combination image IMC, a point on the combination image IMC corresponding to a point on at least one interest area IA being obtained from a weighting of the corresponding points on the images to be combined IM[I], IM[J] according to the weights W[I], W[J] allocated in said analysis step ANA. The invention makes it possible to preserve the properties of certain areas of a particular image within a combination of images without for all that being detrimental to the advantages shown by the combination. Application: Ultirasonic imaging apparatus using a spatial combination of images.
