A photothermographic material having, on at least one side of a support, an image forming layer including at least a photosensitive silver halide, a non-photosensitive organic silver salt, a reducing agent, and a binder, wherein 1) the binder includes a polymer latex having a monomer component represented by formula (M): <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>CH<SUB>2</SUB>-CR<SUP>01</SUP>-CR<SUP>02</SUP>-CH<SUB>2</SUB> Formula (M) <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> 2) the photothermographic material includes a compound represented by formula (SA): and 3) the photothermographic material further includes a metal phthalocyanine dye represented by formula (PC-1): wherein at least one of R<SUP>1</SUP>, R<SUP>4</SUP>, R<SUP>5</SUP>, R<SUP>8</SUP>, R<SUP>9</SUP>, R<SUP>12</SUP>, R<SUP>13</SUP>, and R<SUP>16 </SUP>is an electron-attracting group. The invention provides a photothermographic material which produces an image free from unevenness in color tone, having high image quality, and is excellent in image storability.
