An ultrasonic diagnostic device is provided. The ultrasonic diagnostic device includes an ultrasonic probe configured to acquire an echo signal by transmitting and receiving ultrasonic waves to and from a test object, a probe identification part configured to identify information about a position and orientation of the ultrasonic probe, a biopsy needle identification part configured to identify information about a position and orientation of a biopsy needle to be inserted into the test object, and a control part which controls at least one of two processes based on positional relations between the ultrasonic probe and the biopsy needle, the positional relations identified by the information from the probe identification part and the information from the biopsy needle identification part, wherein one of the two processes is the transmission and reception of the ultrasonic waves, and the other of the two processes is data processing based on the echo signal.
