PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processor and image processing method, wherein an unclear image-sensing region in an imaging tomographic image is complemented based on three-dimensional volume data.SOLUTION: An image generation section 130 acquires the image of the tomographic surface corresponding to the tomographic image of a subject that an ultrasonic probe captures from the three-dimensional volume data, based on position posture information on the ultrasonic probe. An image composition section 140 generates a synthesized image in which the image of the tomographic surface and the tomographic image are synthesized, and then outputs the generated synthesized image. In the synthesis, the tomographic image and the image of the tomographic surface are synthesized by specifying an area as an unclear image-sensing region in the tomographic image and replacing an image of the inside of the unclear image-sensing region with an image of the inside of an area corresponding to the unclear image-sensing region in the image of tomographic surface. |
