Abstract

To efficiently, 3-dimensionally, perspectively project and display the extracting processing procedure of a predetermined region on a 3-dimensional image, the extracting process is executed while observing the displayed image. Further, the process is interrupted as necessary so that the process can progress or be returned. The result of the extraction at the interruption time point is edited on a 2-dimensional image and the result of the edition is immediately reflected onto the 3-dimensional image, so that whether the edition is proper or improper can be decided.
