Abstract

See full text

A medical diagnostic imaging apparatus according to embodiments includes storage circuitry and processing circuitry. The storage circuitry stores therein volume data concerning a three-dimensional region inside an object. The processing circuitry calculates an index value concerning a region of interest in the volume data, and generates a first medical image and a second medical image based on the index value. The respective positions in the first medical image and the second medical image are associated with each other by a certain coordinate conversion. The region of interest is divided into a plurality of first regions by a first boundary position. The second medical image is divided into a plurality of second regions by a second boundary position that is not altered in accordance with the alteration of the first boundary position.
