Abstract

A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry configured: to generate a projection image by implementing an intensity projection on a plurality of two-dimensional images structuring three-dimensional volume data rendering a tubular organ; to obtain a mapping matrix of the intensity projection; to annotate the tubular organ in the projection image; and to identify the tubular organ in the three-dimensional volume data, by inversely mapping the tubular organ annotated in the projection image onto the three-dimensional volume data while using the mapping matrix.
