Image processing apparatus, ultrasonic photographing system, image processing method, program, and storage medium

摘要

An image processing apparatus includes ultrasonic image obtaining means (180) arranged to obtain an ultrasonic image by capturing a subject by ultrasound, generation means (118) arranged to generate a corresponding cross-sectional surface which corresponds to an image capturing cross-sectional surface of the ultrasonic image, which is parallel to a reference direction, and which includes a position specified in advance from a three-dimensional image of the subject, and cross-sectional image obtaining means (120) arranged to obtain a cross-sectional image of the three-dimensional image from the generated corresponding cross-sectional surface.
