Abstract: An ultrasonic imaging apparatus comprises an ultrasonic transducer for propagating ultrasonic beams to a subject, and converting echo beams reflected from the subject into an echo signal, a focus switch circuit for setting a plurality of focal depths, and a focus control circuit for outputting delay signals corresponding to the focal depths set by the focus switch circuit. The focus control circuit changes the delay signals corresponding to the preset focus depths to signals corresponding to the focus depths that are located within a display range, especially when the ultrasonic image is enlarged and shifted with at least one of the preset focus depths out of the display range.
