PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus capable of precisely grasping the timing for a contrast to flow into a subject regardless of the personal difference, and photographing an appropriate diagnostic image in each time phase. SOLUTION: The ultrasonic diagnosis apparatus comprises a probe A for ultrasonic-scanning the subject based on a first driving signal, a probe B for transmitting ultrasonic waves to a monitored region based on a second driving signal, receiving a reflection wave caused by the contrast flowing into the monitored region and generating a second echo signal, a monitoring part 28 for detecting a reference time when the contrast flows into the monitored region based on the second echo signal and generating a trigger signal, and a control processor 27 for controlling a transmitting/receiving unit 21 based on the trigger signal so that the first driving signal is fed to the probe A at the time after the delay time determined according to the positional relation between the monitored region and the subject elapses from the reference time.
