MEDICAL DATA PROCESSING DEVICE AND RADIATION TOMOGRAPHY DEVICE PROVIDED THEREWITH

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a medical data processing device capable of generating an MIP image suitable for diagnosis. According to this medical data processing device, the brightness of a body surface region that is a portion corresponding to the body surface of a three-dimensional image of a subject in three-dimensional space data is adjusted. Since the brightness of the body surface region is lowered by the adjustment, the maximum brightness is selected from portions other than the body surface region when an MIP image (P1) is generated, and the image is generated. In so doing, when the MIP image (P1) is generated, the body surface of the subject is not contained in the image. Consequently, the MIP image (P1) having excellent visibility and showing the internal state of the subject can be acquired.
