1. An ultrasound diagnosis apparatus comprising:

  • an ultrasound probe;

    a beam-former configured to scan an object to be examined with ultrasound waves through said ultrasound probe;

    a B-mode processor configured to generate B-mode data on the basis of a reception signal output from said beam-former;

    a power Doppler processor configured to generate power Doppler data on the basis of the reception signal output from said beam-former, the power Doppler data being generated on the basis of the reception signal acquired under transmission conditions that a burst wave number is equal or substantially equal to that for the B-mode data, and an ensemble number is set to one of 2 to 10; and

    a synthesizer configured to generate 1-frame synthetic image data by synthesizing the B-mode data with the power Doppler data.
