MEDICAL IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS

摘要

A medical image processing apparatus according to one embodiment includes image processing circuitry. The image processing circuitry set a measurement target slice intersecting with a tubular tissue region of a tubular tissue with likelihood of tumor infiltration with respect to a plurality of three-dimensional images in a plurality of phases. The image processing circuitry measure the morphological index value of the measurement target slice of the tubular tissue region over a plurality of phases. The image processing circuitry determine, based on a change in morphological index value over a plurality of phases, whether a tumor has infiltrated the tubular tissue.

1. A medical image processing apparatus comprising image processing circuitry configured to process a plurality of three-dimensional images in a plurality of phases,
wherein the image processing circuitry set a slice intersecting with a tubular tissue region of a tubular tissue with likelihood of tumor infiltration with respect to the plurality of three-dimensional images in the plurality of phases, measure a morphological index value on the slice of the tubular tissue region over the plurality of phases, and determine, based on a change in the morphological index value over the plurality of phases, whether the tumor has infiltrated the tubular tissue.
