Abstract

A medical image processing apparatus includes: a display unit; and circuitry configured to: acquire volume data including tissues, and set a first mask region and a second mask region which include a voxel to be rendered among a plurality of voxels included in the volume data; set a first plane which intersects both the first mask region and the second mask region; display a first image in which a first region formed by cutting the first mask region by the first plane and the second mask region are rendered; receive through an operation unit a first operation for setting a second plane which is parallel to the first plane and intersects both the first mask region and the second mask region; and display a second image in which a second region formed by cutting the first mask region by the second plane and the second mask region are rendered.
