<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent an occurrence of an error of collecting tissues by reducing a burden of work on a physician or a technician examining the tissues of affected regions and by quickly and reliably collecting the tissues of the affected region collected by a biopsy needle, and to further reduce the time required for the examination of the collected tissues. Ž<P>SOLUTION: In a biopsy region extracting device, the affected region in an examination subject at least in two images acquired by photographing the examination subject from mutually different directions is detected. Next, when the affected region in one image and the affected region in the other image are the identical affected region, both images get the affected regions related. Next, a three-dimensional position of the affected region is calculated, and whether a part of the tissues of the affected region can be collected or not by inserting the biopsy needle in the affected region is determined. If the part of the tissues of the affected region can be collected, the affected region is extracted as a candidate for a biopsy region. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
