An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus includes the following. An ultrasound probe includes a transmitting opening including a plurality of transducers, and the transmitting opening includes a plurality of transducer groups including at least a first transducer group and a second transducer group. A transmitter generates a plurality of driving signals with different driving waveforms including at least a first driving signal and a second driving signal, provides a time delay to the plurality of driving signals so that the transmitting ultrasound focuses to a same focal point, outputs the first driving signal to the first transducer group, outputs the second driving signal to the second transducer group, and outputs the plurality of driving signals to the plurality of transducer groups of the transmitting opening. A receiver receives the receiving signal from the ultrasound probe. An image generator generates the ultrasound image data from the receiving signal.
