<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately determine an excision region subject to the excision out of an organ including an abnormal region to be excised. <P>SOLUTION: A smallest enclosing body 52 that encloses an abnormal region 51 is set. A part of an organ belonging to the inside of an elliptic parabolic surface or a circular conic surface that circumscribes the set enclosing body 52, is extracted as a partial region 54. A region 5 of a structure dominating the organ is extracted from the obtained medical image. A part of the organ including the abnormal region and being dominated by a part 55 of the structure extending from a predetermined position in the extracted region of the structure toward the part of the organ including the abnormal region, is extracted as a dominance region 56. The partial region 54 or the dominance region 56 is determined as the excision region based on a predetermined excision region determination condition. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
